Murray's Score this season has def been the smartest he's ever scored. Not as many memorable new pieces of music as in say, series 4, but so many interwoven melodies, careful placements and lighter touches. Everytime we think he can't get better, he does.
I didn't realize until the end of the season that this motif wasn't actually Ruby's theme. It's very tonally reminiscent somehow, but it's not in Life of Sunday at all and it only plays whenever her mom is mentioned, so it's really more like a "family" or "longing" theme. They put the two themes together quite nicely when she finally meets her mother ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Mo6cVsmM3yI.html
THIS is the Murray Gold I'd have liked to see more of in RTD2, such a beautiful piece of music. To be fair, I respect the fact he's not letting the music completely overwhelm the scenes this time round like some would say he used to do, but combined with the stunning performances from Ncuti and Millie, it's one of my favourite moments this season and genuinely has me tearing up every time I hear Ruby whisper those three words as she leaves the TARDIS.
Which in itself is a variation of a song from The Doctor, The Widow and The Tardis, which in itslef is a variation of The Doctors Theme. So now all Doctors from 05 onwards have had The Doctors theme play at some point. yay
Haha, didn't realize you had this up already. I tried to make a cleaner version as well ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BhgpEQ1rGh8.html
