Doctor Who Timelash Soundtrack CD
Available to order from www.amazon.co.uk andwww.rarewaves.com
Timelash is the fifth serial of the 22nd season in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in two weekly parts on BBC1 on 9 and 16 March 1985. It is, to date, the only television Doctor Who story to have a score been composed by a woman. In the serial, the Borad (Robert Ashby), the mutated leader of the planet Karfel, plots to start a war with the Bandril race which would wipe out both the Bandrils and Karfel’s population so that the Borad could repopulate it with his own kind to rule the planet.

October 2nd, 2026 - 7:40pmNice to hear about the release, but the plastic-y AI upscaling on the cover pics is off-putting.

September 22nd, 2026 - 4:47pmI think the music in ‘Timelash’ is very good. I honestly don’t mind this story. I can tolerate it. 7/10.

September 20th, 2026 - 4:32pmOh and there’s other things I’d like to see get soundtracks too, the 2017 Shada score, More than 30 Years in the TARDIS and Scream of the Shalka
Moonbeam
September 21st, 2026 - 10:36amI’m sure the curse of fenric was done quite a few years ago, I’m sure I’ve got it on CD
Professor Flibble
September 21st, 2026 - 11:24amNot been done as one of these new releases so didn’t count it.
moonbeam
September 21st, 2026 - 12:59pmYeah sorry didn’t read it properly.
K9stein
September 22nd, 2026 - 12:37pmThere’s also ‘The Daleks’ Master Plan’, and I sure that if Silva Screen gather all the relevant stock music, they could also do ‘The Tomb of the Cybermen’ and ‘The Web of Fear’.
Peter
September 20th, 2026 - 9:30amSurely the Pertwee has to be a Blyton score?
David Myers
September 19th, 2026 - 8:28amNice to see but a rather random release, maybe because it was Liz Parker’s only story. Personally I’d like to see Logopolis get a release, yeah I know its available as isolated soundtrack
Nick
September 19th, 2026 - 10:27amYes please to a Logopolis soundtrack release. Wanted this one for ages.
Moonbeam
September 20th, 2026 - 3:45pmDefo would like a Logopolis soundtrack, would really like a Happiness Patrol soundtrack to be honest though.
Nick
September 20th, 2026 - 11:19pmI would definitely buy the Happiness Patrol soundtrack. Arc of Infinity too.
Peter
September 18th, 2026 - 3:19pmIs this release maybe why the isolated soundtrack for this story isn’t on the Collection boxset?
Daniel Cox
September 18th, 2026 - 6:34pmYea Mark Ayres said he ran out of time and money to add it to the Season 22 Collection
The Unlicensed Physician
September 21st, 2026 - 12:18amThe composers from the Radiophonic Workshop also don’t get guaranteed royalties from an isolated in-sync soundtrack, so Liz Parker can get some pennies this way too.
Daniel Cox
September 18th, 2026 - 11:06amhttp://www.rarewaves.com Saw this link. I ordered through Amazon UK
bryan
September 17th, 2026 - 3:55pmWonderful, would have thought this to have come sooner,with Elizabeth Parker being a celebrated music creator,and the only Female to work on DW music other than the Goddess herself Delia Derbyshire.
Shame no Vinyl, unless it’s a silva screen ltd website exclusive(yeah I’m clutching at straws)
Philip Shaw
September 17th, 2026 - 12:29pmA long time in coming the Colin release. I expected it to be ‘Mindwarp’. Just Jon Pertwees to release. I expect it to be ‘The Sea Devils’.
Auton
September 18th, 2026 - 9:11amHow do we know a Pertwee one is coming?
Philip Shaw
September 18th, 2026 - 1:35pmThe original idea was that at least 7 would come out of the first 7 Drs, The Daleks, Krotons, Sunmakers, Visitation, 5 Drs, Time and the Rani, all was left was a C.Baker, and a Pertwee…
Missyrules
September 18th, 2026 - 2:05pmSea devils was released as a soundtrack cd in 2008
Peter
September 18th, 2026 - 3:18pmOk, so if Sea Devils has already been released: what is the Pertwee title it’s most likely to be? Death to the Daleks, maybe?
Philip Shaw
September 18th, 2026 - 9:10pmThe Sea Devils release in 2008 was the audio version of the soundtrack with narration and audio dialogue. I was referring to the isolated score.

September 19th, 2026 - 5:37pmPhilip, 25 isolated score tracks (just over 44 minutes) from The Sea Devils were included on the CD ‘Doctor Who at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop Volume 2: New Beginnings 1970 – 1980’, released in 2000.
