BBC readies Doctor Who Christmas single, The Goblin Song

The BBC is releasing a song from the upcoming Doctor Who Christmas special – ‘The Church on Ruby Road’ – as a Christmas single.

The Goblin Song is an original composition created specifically for the Fifteenth Doctor’s debut by composer Murray Gold and writer Russell T Davies.

The song is available on BBC Sounds from Monday December 11th and the single’s music video will share exclusive content from the special.

The Goblin Song will also be available via Spotify, Apple Music and Deezer, with all proceeds going to BBC Children in Need.

“I don’t like these goblins and you won’t either, but they have agreed to donate everything from their song to BBC Children in Need so let’s not give up on them,” said composer Murray Gold.

Russell T Davies added: “We’re releasing this as an early Christmas present for everyone. And if you want to see how the Doctor and Ruby escape from the Goblin King at the end of the song, you’ll have to watch on Christmas Day!”
