Made me think of this

@Susan

Are there a lot of pop music parts of Doctor Who?

I know there have been several in the revived stuff and quite prominent (Scissor Sisters for a start) but i can't recall many if any other than the Beatles in the original run due to both copyright issues and cost of featuring songs.

There's a fair amount, yes

There is (amongst others):

• The Seekers and The Beatles during the Troughton era
• Fleetwood Mac, King Crimson, ELP, Electric Banana (who were a pseudonym for The Pretty Things) during the Pertwee era
• Lots of classical and music hall tunes during Tom's era
• Classical, 1920's dance music and Irvin Berlin tunes in the Davison era
• Hendrix, The Surfers, Ted Heath Orchestra and Procol Harem in Colin's era
• The Lorells, The Beatles and Courtney Pine in the McCoy era
• Pucinni's 'Madame Butterfly' in the McGann film
• Soft Cell, Britney, Bowie and Glenn Miller in the Eccleston era
• Slade, Ian Dury, Joy Division and ELO during the Tennant years
• Queen, Katherine Jenkins, Sting The Specials and The Cult during the Smith adventures
• Foxes, Primal Scream and Little Mix in the Capaldi stories

This should prove rather interesting over the coming days / weeks.

I don't remember The Cult at all.

Oh it was in that one was it?

Terrible episode. Only seen it on transmission and one time since.

Oh God I hated Journey to the Centre of the Tardis. Likewise I've only seen it once. Quite honestly, the other story that takes place within the depths of the Tardis was much better, even though they were low on budget with the use of an abandoned hospital.
