Who was that


If I said the name Delia Derbyshire, would that mean anything to you??
Probably not, but there is a good chance that you will have heard one of her Compositions.
She composed the music to Dr Who.
The sounds that she created were years ahead of her time and she was in great demand in the Radio Workshop constructing futuristic sounds for TV programmes.
Trouble was, she never got recognised and received no credit for the Time Travelling programme. So much so that she left the BBC in disgust and became a recluse. She unfortunately turned to alcohol and died of Cancer! Taken for granted she died a very lonely lady and yet her music has caused so much excitement in kids young and old. How sad that no one could have praised her work,

A friend of mine has got addicted to drinking Brake Fluid.
He says he can stop at anytime though!
