Doctor Who Experience Re-Launch Announced

A new era of Doctor Who brings with it a rejuvenated Cardiff-based attraction.
Den of Geek have just confirmed that an expansion and regeneration (see what we did there?) of BBC Worldwide's Doctor Who Experience will occur later this year. Scheduled to coincide with the premiere of Peter Capaldi's first season as the eponymous Time Lord, the updated interactive experience will apparently star Capaldi and Jenna Coleman, as well as featuring a number of villains from the BBC science-fiction drama's past and present.

The Experience's new rooms and setpieces will be constructed over a (estimated) period of six weeks, but the attraction's behind-the-scenes exhibition will remain open during the construction process to allow fans to experience the aftermath of the interactive segment. Props and costumes from this year's Season Eight are expected to be added to the exhibition on top of the upgraded narrative, and if and when we hear official details on the nature of the various upcoming alterations, you'll be the first to know right here. Nevertheless, despite the relative ambiguity regarding what's to come for the attraction, we're glad to hear that Steven Moffat and the production team are prepared to tweak even the most inconsequential elements of their narrative universe in order to suit the series' continuity and provide further incentives for fans to travel to the home of the show's ongoing production.

Doctor Who Experience is open now at Porth Teigr, Cardiff Bay, with its rejuvenated interactive walkthrough segment set to be revealed to the public this Autumn.
