Doctor on Display: Llangollen (2022)

Oct 31, 2022 50m Documentary

This time we’re off to North Wales and the historic mill town of Llangollen – home to a Doctor Who exhibition with that little bit more to offer. Llangollen sits alongside the River Dee in Denbighshire and is a popular tourist attraction, not least for its steam railway and awe-inspiring aqueduct. In this film we’ll be travelling back in time to visit the exhibition, enjoy the scenery, see the props and monsters, visit the DAPOL factory and hear the stories of those who worked there … and those who have happy memories of visiting one of the biggest Doctor Who exhibitions ever mounted!
