Doctor Who enthusiasts will be able to take a journey through time when the comes to London in the new year.

Set to open on Sunday 20th February 2011 at London's Olympia Two venue, the displays will include items never seen before including original costumes, the Tom Baker TARDIS police box and two authentic TARDIS sets from the eras of David Tennant and Peter Davison.

Matt Smith as the Doctor

Matt Smith, who plays the latest Time Lord, has recorded a series of special new scenes exclusive to the event. He says: "The whole concept of the Doctor Who Experience, which will give fans a chance to star in their very own Doctor Who adventure, is massively exciting!

"I hope as many people as possible enjoy boarding the TARDIS next year to embark upon an exhilarating and sometimes terrifying adventure through time and space."

The public will be able to get up close and personal with sets from recent series, including the Pandorica Box and Chair, and confront numerous monsters including several generations of the Daleks and Cybermen as well as Silurians, an Ice Warrior and a Zygon.

Steven Moffat, the executive producer for the programme, commented: "The Doctor Who Experience is a fan's dream come true - a fully interactive adventure that will allow viewers of the show to get as close as possible to some of the scariest monsters from the series.

"It will also be the first time that Doctor Who artefacts from all the show's 47 year history - classic and new - will be on display together, many of them being seen for the first time. And never mind that, this is the day the Doctor teaches you how to fly the TARDIS through time and space, and takes you into battle with all his deadliest enemies in a brand new adventure. So steady your nerves and bring your own sofa - the Doctor needs you!"

The Doctor Who Experience will relocate to a long term home in Cardiff in 2012. Visit the website for more info.
