Ok, recently watched Doctor Who’s “The End of Time” and discussed the LA Kings with some people, when someone mentioned a song most remember being played during the games. It was a song that only had the lyrics “Doctor Who” repeated numerous times or at least that what it sound like they were. Anyone remember this song or have any idea of what it was and who performed it?

[Doctorin’ The Tardis](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdTELokKfCk), by the TimeLords (or arguably the KLF).

Blatantly stealing from Gary Glitter’s [Rock n Roll](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIsbD0l_bEg).

I’ve always wondered the origin of this.

I think the Doctor Who theme makes an appearance on One of These Days.

That always brings me back to early adolescence, listening to Dr. Demento on the radio on Sunday nights, way after I was supposed to be asleep.
