The Antique Doctor Who Show was a 30th anniversary Doctor Who special.

It was broadcast in the same featurette series as UNIT Recruiting Film, sharing the same "seven Doctors opening introduction".

Main subject

Collectables expert Justin Pressland and Doctor Who expert David J. Howe speak to fans about their Doctor Who memorabilia collections in a pastiche of Antiques Roadshow (1979-ongoing).

Notes

• The featurette had a "motion action figures in motion" opening theme.
• The Antique Doctor Who Show and UNIT Recruiting Film are the only 30th anniversary specials in the Doctor Who and the Daleks featurette series to be made available commercially as DVD extras. Three of the other four, Bigger Inside Than Out, I Was That Monster and Police 5: The Master, remain off-limits for DVD due to a variety of copyright and clearance problems — for example, Bigger Inside Than Out used newsreel footage that would be very expensive, if not impossible, to clear for commercial release. The situation regarding the three aforementioned featurettes is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future. The remaining featurette, Missing in Action, will never appear as a DVD or Blu-ray extra for various legal reasons.

Home media

• The featurette was released as an extra on the DVD release of Horror of Fang Rock.
