All I know is that this orchestra couldn't time the Doctor Who theme well enough to synchronize their performance with the Derbyshire elements. Then suddenly when the BBC Proms orchestra came along, "hey look, it's the Derbyshire elements playing right in time with the orchestra!" I tried matching Derbyshire elements to the recording of the Children in Need concert myself, and it took 27 edits (no exaggeration) to make the themes line up, even after I had synchronized the themes' tempos. "Atrocious" would be too kind a word to describe their musical timing. I am personally of the belief that the orchestra is completely untalented. I have more of a problem with them than I have with Murray Gold. I've analyzed the timing of some of their tracks myself, and it's atrocious. You guys can defend them as much as you like, but I will never believe that they are a particularly talented orchestra.
