The name of the series

[edit]

I would like to create a separate article about the "Doctor in the House" television series 1969-1970 (complete with the episode list for the 26 episodes of that series, etc. etc), but am not sure about how to name the new page because the title has already been used here for the complete "Doctor" series, including sequels — from "Doctor in the House" to "Doctor at the Top" (1969-1991). Does anyone have any suggestions about an appropriate title for the new page — i.e. a name like "Doctor in the House (television)" or or "Doctor in the House (TV)" — so that the two articles would not get mixed up. Thank you. Figaro (talk) 13:55, 29 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another solution to the problem could be to rename this article "Doctor in the House (television)" or "Doctor in the House (TV)" — and then the title "Doctor in the House (TV series)" could be used for the actual 'Doctor in the House' series (of 1969-70) itself — in the same way that Doctor at Large (TV series) and Doctor Down Under already have their own individual pages.

I don't know if there is a definite answer, but it is possible that at some point in the future someone might wish to create pages for the orginal books by Gordon, which would mean Doctor in the House [book/film/entire series/series], Doctor at Large [book/film?/series], etc, etc...

Because this is a combined page, covering all (1969-1991) episodes etc. of the comedy television "Doctor" series, I think that it would be best to rename this page as Doctor in the House (TV), and then the title Doctor in the House (TV series) can be used for the actual British Doctor in the House (1969-70) television series (if there is no objection to this being done}. In this way, there would not be any confusion between the two articles. Figaro (talk) 19:14, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I have now created pages for the remaining sequels and, as mentioned above, I would like to create a page for the "Doctor in the House" television series (1969-70 - as opposed to the current page which combines all of the 'Doctor' series, including sequels).

I have now renamed this page as "Doctor in the House (TV)" (while keeping all of the text intact), and have used the title of "Doctor in the House (TV series)" for the actual television series of that name - i.e. the 1969-70 series). Figaro (talk) 14:54, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Theme music

Does anyone know who wrote the theme music for the television series? Thanks. Figaro (talk) 18:57, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
