The Doctor’s Wife Special on Blue Peter

Some of you will remember that Blue Peter ran a competition back in 2009 for viewer to create a new TARDIS console. The winner would have their creation brought to life in an episode of Doctor Who. Well, that episode is, The Doctor’s Wife.

The winning entry by Susannah Leah (pictured right) is featured in today’s edition of Blue Peter and it will have a behind the scenes look at the TARDIS being made reality.

Thousands of viewers took part in the programme’s competition to design a fresh version of the craft’s central console. Now, Susannah Leah gets to see her winning console made into reality by the Doctor Who designers. Susannah’s version has not only been installed in the Tardis, it also gets a starring role in Saturday’s episode.

The winner of the competition to design a new TARDIS console for Doctor Who goes backstage during filming to see her design come to life, and there is an exclusive look at the brand new episode.

You can catch the segment on Blue Peter today at 4:30pm on BBC1.
