Doctor Who Exhibition

This afternoon or -on looking at the time- more properly yesterday afternoon, ellefurtle, fencingsculptor and I went to the Doctor Who Exhibition at Earl's Court.

The first impression you get when you arrive is that they are not making much of an effort. On the outside there is very little to suggest that there is an exhibition at all other than a partially concealed poster and a small sandwich board in front of the taped off and obviously closed main entrance outside Earl's Court Station.

It's all happening on the West Brompton side as it turns out, but even there, there is little to show that anything's happening. Still, it was clear once inside that enough people knew about it since it was busy, though not overly so. Still, it took a good couple of hours to go round and I managed to get some fun photos and even a couple of short movie files:


Cybercontroller in chair
( Remainder behind the cut for them as ain't interested )

By sheer fluke, and nothing to do with the exhibition, the Metropolitan Police's very own police box outside Earl's Court station. Note the CCTV camera on top instead of a lamp and the different window design. The idiot posing is fencingsculptor.



Finally, this chap was getting rather bolshy with anyone who pushed his button:

After all this we disappeared to the nearest hostelry for three pints of cold lager before coming home for a nap, pizza and X-Files. Pretty much in that order.

A good afternoon out for a tenner a head.
