Notes

• Unlike some other exhibits, both previous to this and running concurrently (such as the Longleat exhibition) this exhibition was open all year round.
• When, in 1997 Tom Baker went to New Zealand to make a series of television commercials for New Zealand Superannuation Services, he got on loan the scarf from his time as the Doctor from this museum.
• Given the range of props and costumes, many of them must have come from previous defunct exhibitions such as Doctor Who Exhibition Blackpool, Doctor Who USA Tour and the Space Adventure exhibition.
• At least one source attests that there were Daleks from the 1960s Dalek movies and from the 1996 television movie however according to another source states that the Dalek props that are in this exhibition are at least in part from the 1960s (a walk-in variety) and another (black and gold) a repainted Dalek from DW: Revelation of the Daleks. From the images available there are no immediately apparent props from the 1996 TV movie.
