3. Doctor Who - Orbital

Electro pop band Orbital's 2001 arrangement of the famous theme tune is legendary at this point. The BBC even used it extensively in their 40th anniversary celebration of the show back in 2003. The track is something of a staple of Orbital's festival playlists and at Glastonbury 2010, Matt Smith, the Eleventh Doctor himself, came on stage and performed it alongside Orbital.

Joel Cornah, is an author hailing from a small isolated village in Lancashire. Having told stories of dinosaurs, penguins and dragons to his younger siblings for nigh on two decades, it soon became apparent that these tales needed to be written down. Gathering the myriad of maps, family trees, illustrations and noted ideas, he began work on the world of dyngard. Having grown along with the audience from a collection of loosely related children’s stories, it became a whole world of adventure, magic and questions. He was awarded a degree in Creative Writing from Liverpool John Moors University and spent seven years writing a comical newspaper for The Barrow Downs Tolkien discussion forum. Currently running a charity café in Parbold village, Joel is often found deep in discussion of the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, the long history of Doctor Who, and desperately trying not to frighten people away. Often with limited success.
