Doctor Who's TARDIS, along with a few Daleks and a Cyberman named Arthur, land in an Ipswich front yard for a unique Christmas lights display.
Tweet: @Anna_Hartley1 - Whiteley family’s Doctor Who themed Christmas light display at the end of their suburban cul de sac in Collingwood Park in Ipswich
British expat Jayson Whiteley and his Australian wife Cassandra are avid fans of the show, and have turned their front yard in an Ipswich cul-de-sac, into a dazzling display to show off some of their collection of props. Neighbours come and sit with the family in deck chairs as the sun goes down, as more people arrive to take a look, many dressed in Doctor Who-themed outfits.
The Whiteleys show people around the display, taking photos of fans in front of Daleks, the TARDIS and a Cyberman."We have an English police car fending off a Dalek attacking the street, we have a TARDIS parked there — we don't know where the Doctor is — so it looks like we're being attacked by Daleks at the moment and half a Cyberman — he's called Arthur," Mr Whiteley said.
"Doctor Who in England is predominantly on [television] at Christmas, so we do our own Doctor Who theme, so this is our Christmas display."
