Check out our round-up of the best Doctor Who decor and have your very own adventure through time and space without ever leaving the comforts of home.
Since the British sci-fi series Doctor Who first landed in 1963, the TARDIS has been a symbol of adventure and exploration. Whenever that big blue police box appears, there is an assured adventure on the horizon – whether it’s visiting Ancient Greece or a planet inhabited by the dreaded Daleks.
Many Doctor Who fans dream of having their own TARDIS, zooming around space and time, and having adventures like the Doctor. Unfortunately, the time-traveling spaceship is still a dream of science fiction and not actually real, but that doesn’t mean that Whovians can’t make their personal space feel like the real thing. Here are some great finds to help decorate the home and take Doctor Who buffs into another dimension.

FAQs
What is Doctor Who’s Home Planet?
The original lore of Doctor Who states that the Doctor, like all Time Lords, comes from the fictional planet Gallifrey. In the 2000s era of the series, Gallifrey was supposedly destroyed during the Time War. However, in the 50th anniversary special “The Day of the Doctor,” the Eleventh and Tenth Doctors helped to save the planet by hiding it safely away in a pocket dimension.
Why is the Doctor nicknamed Theta Sigma?
The name Theta Sigma first was introduced into the Doctor Who canon during the Fourth Doctor’s adventures. Though it was suspected at one point to be the Doctor’s “real” name, it was actually a nickname given to him during his time at the Time Lord Academy in Gallifrey.
