A major Doctor Who exhibition has left the UK for the first time to go on show in Wellington, New Zealand.
I’m in the TARDIS! It’s something I’ve wanted to do since I was a kid in the 1960s, when the BBC science fiction showstarted screening on Australian TV. Since then, the Doctor – the travelling alien who’s the star of the show, righting wrongs across the universe – has been a hero of mine, and possibly the reason I became so keen on travel as an adult.Doctor Who: Worlds of Wonder
There are plenty of costumes and props from Doctor Who on display, but there’s also a deeper purpose to the exhibition: to show how real-world science has been used by the show’s writers and designers to create onscreen creatures and sets. Moving on, another touchscreen allows me to draw links between the show’s aliens and life forms they were based on, such as whales, birds, insects and plants. There’s also a section about communication with aliens, and reminiscences by those who’ve worked on the show.
