For the first time outside of the UK shores Doctor Who Worlds of Wonder will give New Zealand fans an exclusive opportunity to come face to face with iconic characters, share the Doctor’s adventures and explore some of the worlds visited on screen in the hit BBC television series, Doctor Who.
Doctor Who first aired in 1963 and has millions of fans across the globe. It follows the adventures of a time lord known as the Doctor Who explores space and time in the TARDIS.
Since the beginning of the show, science has been prominent in the development of key stories and characters. This exhibition enables visitors to explore scientific themes such as whether time travel is actually possible and why the TARDIS is bigger on the inside.
In the Monster Vault, you can come face to face with many of the Doctor’s alien adversaries while learning about their connections with real science.
Created in collaboration with BBC Studios, scientific themes such as artificial intelligence, DNA manipulation and cloning – all of which have featured in Doctor Who episodes – are explored and explained.
Fiona Lang, General Manager, BBC Studios Australia and New Zealand, says “We’re so pleased to bring this fascinating exhibition to New Zealand. So many Kiwis have grown up with the Doctor and the show’s regenerations mean there are always new fans being introduced to the wonders of the Doctor’s journey through time and space.”
NOTE: Sensory Sessions will be held each Tuesday during the school term at 10am. Lighting will be turned on and sound effects will be turned down for a more relaxed and accessible exhibition experience.
