Who's There?

Doctor Who is the world's longest running science fiction TV series. It began in November 1963, and after a number of years in the wilderness, his TARDIS, Daleks etc are back on our screens on a Saturday evening. The TARDIS is based on the old Police phone boxes that were a common sight on the streets on England up until the late 1960's. It's where a policeman could ring the station for assistance, should a crime be taking place. It all changed when officers were issued with radio sets, or 'walkie, talkies'as they were commonly known. This example stands in the courtyard of the Galleries of Justice, on High Pavement.
