Two former Doctor Who stars will be making a special visit to Peterborough this month to switch on the Christmas Lights at Queensgate Shopping Centre.

Fans of Doctor Who and Christmas are in for a real treat as two former Doctors- Peter Davison and Paul McGann- will be in the city on Saturday November 21 to turn on the lights at Queensgate Shopping Centre.

Davison appeared at the fifth Doctor between 1981 and 1984 while McGann appeared as the eighth incarnation of the Doctor in the 1996 TV film of Doctor Who.

The pair will be making a special appearance at the centre between 12pm - 3pm as part of the festive celebrations.

The appearance coincides with the arrival of a new pop-up Doctor Who experience in the centre known as a ‘Whoseum.’

The Peterborough Museum & Art Gallery, in partnership with Rapido Trains UK, will be bringing together a fantastic range of props, costumes, monsters, memorabilia, recreated sets and Doctor Who history.

A special preview will be taking place on November 21 ahead of the grand opening of November 23.

The Whoseum follows on from the blockbuster success of the world-leading ‘Adventures in Time and Space’ exhibition that ran at Peterborough Museum between May and November last year.

On the day, festive activities will begin in Queensgate at 11:30am there will be Ice Queens on Stilts, Polar Bear Walkabouts, Human Snow Globe as well as live performances from PODS, Cresset and Rock Choir.
