Calling all Whovians — an auction house in Tetbury is offering Time Lord fans the opportunity to take home their very own villainous Dalek.
Invading the auction room, the emotionless aliens from the BBC’s long-running science fiction series, Doctor Who, will go under the hammer in a sale at John Rolfe Auctions in Babdown on Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 February 2024.
Up for grabs is a red Dalek, which is believed to have formed part of an exhibition at Longleat,
while its bronze counterpart may have featured on television in the
relaunched Doctor Who series
in the early 2000s. The second cyborg is equipped with a seat and controls for its weapons,
and saleroom manager, Ali Lidbetter, took it for a spin around the
warehouse.
Mr Rolfe said: 'These have come in
privately, with no reserve, so here to be sold in a collector sale. We've got
further collector's items from film and television, including some Muhammad Ali
photographs.'
A coat in the style of Colin Baker’s Doctor and a knitted scarf will also go under the hammer in the Collectors’ Sale.
