Dominic Francis Glynn (born 27 September 1960) is an English electronic composer.[1]

Glynn is a prolific composer of music for television and film. His work includes the arrangement of the Doctor Who theme music which served as the series' theme for Season 23 of the programme.[2] It was replaced by Keff McCulloch's arrangement the next season. He also wrote the incidental music for the Doctor Who stories The Mysterious Planet, The Ultimate Foe, Dragonfire, The Happiness Patrol and Survival. Big Finish Productions has used his arrangement of the theme on several audio plays featuring the Sixth Doctor, starting with Jubilee in 2003. Glynn has a long-term working relationship as composer for the films of British filmmaker Anthony Baxter, which began with the 2011 documentary You've Been Trumped. Subsequent films include A Dangerous Game (2014), You’ve Been Trumped Too (2016), Flint: Who Can You Trust (2020) and Eye of the Storm (2021) which won the British Academy Scotland Award for Specialist Factual in 2021.
