It's going to be a while before I am able to shut up about the Devil's Chord, but I also am so unbelievably obsessed with the return of old scores, specifically in the episode where the existence of the soundtrack within the show was acknowledged. There's the Saxon theme when the Maestro is taking over the TARDIS, and there's the Doomsday-sounding music (I know it's not identical, but I maintain it sounds similar) when the Doctor is worried about losing his blonde, somewhat Rose-coded companion (thinking about all the similarities to End of the World in Space Babies).
Like, The Devil's Chord didn't just acknowledge the existence of the theme music within the show, but also dragged all the history within the show's music into the present (/past in 1963).
