He composed his first Doctor Who output in ’75 in the form of some incidental music for \u003ci\u003eRevenge of the Cybermen \u003c\/i\u003eand special sound for \u003ci\u003ePlanet of Evil.\u003c\/i\u003e In 1980, he was asked by the programme’s then new producer, John Nathan-Turner, to update the iconic Doctor Who theme. The new arrangement appeared on that year’s \u003ci\u003eThe Leisure Hive\u003c\/i\u003e, continuing to be used through Tom Baker’s remaining series as the Doctor and throughout Peter Davison’s. It was replaced during Colin Baker’s tenure in 1986 with a new version by Dominic Glynn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThrough A Glass Darkly\u003c\/i\u003e was released in 1978 as a standalone studio album by Howell in collaboration with the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. The six original instrumental compositions (one of which is 19 minutes long) flaunt a prog rock influence as well as the distinctive electronic sound of the RWS. \u003ci\u003eThe Astronauts \u003c\/i\u003e(track 5, side 2) appeared again as a B side to the 1980 single release of his version of the Doctor Who theme.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Silva Screen","offers":[{"title":"Clear | LP","offer_id":50483178930507,"sku":"1085749","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/49bea4b0-5e71-4b51-86d1-88f8c8df4bfc_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727562354","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/through-a-glass-darkly","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
