Ooh - you tease!

I won't stick my neck out any farther than to say that I don't believe for a 
moment that Chris Franke did anything dishonest or immoral. But therein lies 
the source of my puzzlement as to how the two songs came to be so strikingly 
(there's that word again) similar.

I can't recall him ever posting anything here, either spontaneously or 
prompted. It's a pity, because I for one would have been very interested in 
his take on writing the music for the series. And no, before you ask, I 
shan't be the one to drop him a line...
