Dudley Simpson, who wrote music for Doctor Who, has died aged 95. The Australian-born composer wrote music for around 290 episodes for the BBC science-fiction series between the 1960s and 1970s. Simpson first began working on Doctor Who during William Hartnell's tenure as the first Doctor, even appearing on the show during the 1977 episode 'The Talons of Weng-Chiang', playing an on-screen composer. When John Nathan-Turner took over as producer in 1980, Simpson was removed as composer, his last episode being 'The Horns of Nimon'.
