From British TV Show Top Of The Pops from 1978 this was the disco version of Ron Grainer's theme to the DOCTOR WHO TV series by MANKIND, produced by Don Gallacher and arranged by Mark Stevens. The late 1970's period was very strong and competitive for music as record sales of the whole top forty were massive back then compared to today and although this only managed number 25 on the UK charts it still sold a fair few copies and hung around for 12 weeks and was aired on the show two or three times. This particular clip is from 31st December 1978.


This video is uploaded only for promotion of the disco era and the music of Mankind, Ron Grainer and Doctor Who and I will gladly remove the video clip if requested if it's in breach of any copyright.

  • really interesting to see this with the keyboardist playing a CS-50, the little brother of the CS-80 which is Peter Howell's signature sound.

  • BTW, what happened to the other Mankind appearance on TOTP? The band appeared a second time after Christmas 1978.

  • @dongee2247 Thanks for your wonderful work,Don.I still treasure it today.
