It may be all over for @claytonhickman's advent trip through the classic history of TARDIS interiors but the journey doesn't finish there! I shall shortly be setting out on a trip through the #TwelveDaysOfTARDISInteriors covering the TVM through to the latest iteration... https://twitter.com/claytonhickman/status/1342383180565925888

Doctor Who and the Gothic Warehouse

In 1996 the series returned for one night only and proceeded to blow a significant chunk of budget on this grand reimagining with nooks, crannies and even a mezzanine floor!

Doctor Who and the Coral Cavern

In 2004 work started on the first continuous series of the show in 15 years. And it marked the first standing control room set initially in Studio Q2 just outside Newport before moving to Upper Boat in Cardiff.

Doctor Who and the Paradox Machine

For the last episode of series 3 the Master constructs a complex arrangement of caging and cables as well as giving the control room a lovely red lighting makeover!

Doctor Who and Death Comes to Ten

The final scene of the End of Time part two showing one of the columns collapsing.

And as a bonus a lovely Radio Times shot from the Wedding of Sarah Jane - the last recording on the set during Tennant's era.

For Matt Smith's debut this new multi-layered space was introduced and was kept, with minor alterations, for the next two-and-a-half series.

Doctor Who and the Surprisingly Spacious Diner

For Hell Bent we had a reinvention on the classic original. And ruddy marvellous it was too!

Doctor Who and the Evolving Set

Over the five years it was used the second Pickwoad set had changes in lighting, gain dressing and, most importantly, grew roundels!
#TwelveDaysOfTARDISInteriors day 10

Doctor Who and The Original, You Might Say

For Twice Upon A Time the First Doctor's control room was rebuilt for the 21st century. Not a slavish recreation but definitely invokes Brachacki's design for the 21st century.

Doctor Who and the Fugitive's Surprise

When a past even the Doctor doesn't know about catches up with her we were treated to a radical new take on the original design. But have we seen the last of it...?

Doctor Who and the Massive Crystals

Our last day brings us up to date with the latest version of the control room and its lovely stairs. Note that the Gallifreyan text on the edge of the console dais disappears between series 11 and 12.
