Doctor Who and Blue Peter give fans the chance to win money-can't-buy prize
One lucky winner will get the kind of prize that many Doctor Who fans can only dream of.
Young Blue Peter viewers are in for a veritable treat with a certain Doctor Who-related upcoming prize.
Launching later this week on Friday 28th April, viewers aged between five and 15 will be asked to draw Doctor Who fan art. But that's not all – they'll also be prompted to state why they would love the opportunity to win the prize of a lifetime.
The lucky winner will win an exclusive set tour, so if any Doctor Who child fans have been avidly wondering just how the TARDIS is shown the way it is, or the secrets behind some of the show's most awe-inspiring set designs, now's the time to get drawing.
The winner will get to go behind the scenes of the long-running sci-fi series and learn how the show is made, as well as everything about what the production design team behind Doctor Who gets up to.
