Original 6th Doctor items on eBay -
July 2016

No sooner has the echo of the gavel faded in the Bonhams sale room, then items sold there start appearing on eBay.

Revelation of the Daleks -
Blue Mortuary Tunic
This auction is for an original, screen used Doctor Who costume from the 1985 serial 'Revelation of the Daleks', starring Colin Baker as the Doctor.

The story is set on the planet Necros, the location of the funeral home named Tranquil Repose. This costume was worn by one of the various cast members playing a mortuary attendant, and can be clearly seen in various scenes throughout the story.

The costume itself consists of a light blue tunic with buttons down the left hand side and a pair of light blue trousers. The costume parts are in good, screen used condition and come from a smoke and pet-free home.

The price for this auction is set at just £250.00 (buy it now or best offer), representing an excellent opportunity to purchase an affordable, original, screen used costume from a well respected classic Doctor Who serial, from over 30 years ago.


Revelation of the Daleks -
Green Mortuary tunic
This auction is for an original, screen used Doctor Who costume from the 1985 serial 'Revelation of the Daleks', starring Colin Baker as the Doctor.

The story is set on the planet Necros, the location of the funeral home named Tranquil Repose. This costume was likely worn by one of the various cast members playing a Tranquil Repose guard, who can be clearly seen in various scenes throughout the story, particularly in the catacombs with Davros.

The costume itself consists of a green tunic with buttons down the left hand side with a couple of pockets at the front. There is a label at the top from 'Garroulds of London' who provided the tunics for this story; there is also "DW" inscribed on the label (see third photo). The tunic is in good, screen used condition and comes from a smoke and pet-free home.

The item has been checked by Bonhams auctioneers having been sold as part of lot 82 in the 1991 Bonhams Doctor Who auction, as well as part of lot 80 in the more recent Entertainment memorabilia auction in 2016.

The price for this auction is set at just £195.00 (buy it now or best offer), representing an excellent opportunity to purchase an affordable, original, screen used costume from a well respected classic Doctor Who serial, from over 30 years ago.

Original 6th Doctor items on eBay -
January 2016

These boots exchanged hand on eBay back in April 2013 when I think they sold for £590.

Here they are again, for slightly less.

Attack of the Cybermen
Cybermen boots
This is a rare original prop from the classic series of Doctor Who - a pair of boots from a Cyberman costume.

One boot has 'J Ainley' (nephew of Anthony Ainley') written on the top. He played a Cyberman in the 1985 sixth doctor adventure Attack of the Cybermen, and so the boots can certainly be dated to this story and may have featured in The Five Doctors as the BBC tended re-use costumes.


Classic series props are few and far between, especially ones relating to the iconic monsters of the show.

REPLICA 6th Doctor items on eBay -
September 2015

All I can say is be careful of paying massively over-inflated prices for things that might appear to be better than they are.
Always ready the description closely too.

Doctor Who - Colin Baker (The Sixth Doctor Who) Suzie Trevor Cat Badge
Provenance:
BBC Costume Designer Pat Godfrey purchased four cat badges from a specialist badge shop in Central London for Colin Baker’s costume in 1984. The badges were hand made by Suzie Trevor in clay. This badge was one of four created for me by Suzie from her original moulds and has been displayed on my screen used Colin Baker Costume in a number of exhibitions.
PLEASE NOTE YOU ARE BIDDING FOR THE BADGE AND NOT THE ORIGINAL COSTUME!!!!!


Just a reminder that you can still buy an EQUALLY ORIGINAL cat brooch, hand made by Susan Trevor from the original mould, for £35 inclusive of global shipping.

Making My 6th Doctor Costume - purrrrrrfection!

Doctor Who Experience Colin Baker Replica Cat Badge
(The Sixth Doctor Who)
Provenance:
This cat badge is the same as the badge used in the Official BBC Television Exhibition ‘The Doctor Who Experience, Earls Court, London. The costume displayed in the exhibition was not screen used but a replica made by a couple trading under the name ‘Cloth Ears’. A badge of this design was used on the display.
PLEASE NOTE YOU ARE BIDDING FOR THE BADGE AND NOT THE ORIGINAL COSTUME!!!!!

I was browsing around on eBay and found a cheap as chips listing for a white plastic cat brooch which I thought was worth a look.

Original 6th Doctor items on eBay -
July 2015

I noticed a very similar item to this back in November 2012.

That time around it sold for £55.66!

I wonder what this one will fetch this time around.

Mindwarp Sil Ticker Tape
SOLD FOR £28.01

Up for auction is a strip of ticatape used in sils computer from trial of a timelord obtained from steve cambden who has signed it as well.



Meanwhile, omeone is selling of their script collection on eBay this month, and here are the times relating to the Sixth Doctor.

Mark of the Rani
(composer John Lewis's own scripts)
UNSOLD FOR £400 (best offer accepted)

Listed is a lot of original BBC Doctor Who Scripts (Composer John Lewis personal copies)

These scripts are from the story Mark of the Rani, ep 1 & 2 which comprise of four scripts split into two parts each. Also included is the production schedule, all contained in a dark grey BBC folder with Mark of the Rani written in biro.

The Scripts are in good order, although shows slight pin rust, page wear, and have been production used with numerous corrections, quotes, telephone numbers and coffee stains ect..... most likely John Lewis himself no doubt.

These items were obtained directly from the family of a sound engineer friend who worked with the late John Lewis on the show's music shortly before he became too ill  resulting in his sad passing, who then was subsequently replaced by Jonathan Gibbs in 1984 to finish off the music, although some remained as tribute to him which can be heard in the special features of the DVD release.

"I must emphasise that these are production used, his own personal scripts whilst working on the show's music. I have also for provenance a copy provided of the original BBC contract stating how much he (John Lewis) was to be paid for minutes of music which will accompany this rare lot. So don't miss out on this rare piece of Doctor Who memorabilia!" Reason for the sale is that as you can see with my other listings that I'm selling my whole collection after many years. It was fun obtaining them, sad to part with them obviously, but now it's time to move on. So watch out for further original scripts and goodies that will be listed soon.

Update 5th July 2015: I've added some pics of the said John Lewis contract copy given to me by the family of the late sound engineer & friend of the late Doctor Who composer who both worked on the music at the BBC in the mid eighties and at Passion Music limited.

Mindwarp script signed by Nicola Bryant and Brian Blessed
UNSOLD

You are bidding on an original script from the doctor who story mindwarp. This script has been signed by Nicola Bryant and Brian blessed. The script contains the scene where peri dies.
Great piece of who history.
Purchased many years ago and in good condition


Mysterious Planet script signed by Dominic Glynn
SOLD FOR £50

You are bidding on an original doctor who script for the studio session of mysterious planet. The script is 100 pages long . It also comes with a recording order script which tells you the scenes being recorded on the studio days this has been signed by Dominic Glynn.

Revelation of the Daleks
episode 1 script
SOLD FOR £68

This is an original television script from the BBC Television programme Doctor Who.

This script is from 1985 - episode 1 of Revelation of the Daleks starring Colin Baker.

It is printed on white paper, which is rather faded.

The butterfly clip is very rusty, and some of the pages have become very fragile (see photos)

Please be aware that this paper is 30 years old, and accordingly is fragile.

Please note this script relates to an episode which was 45 minute duration, so this is a thick document, well in excess of 100 pages.

At the front of this script is a 2 page synopsis of both episodes of the story, but this sale is only for part 1.

I came by it as I was a close personal friend of John Nathan-Turner, who produced Doctor Who in the 1980s.

Upon his death (2002), and that of his partner (2007), I was left his extensive Doctor Who collection, which included a number of scripts, including this one.

John had them in his private collection due to the fact that the BBC "Classic series" production office closed in 1990, and all of the paperwork and contents of the office were to be destroyed / dumped. John realised their value, and thankfully personally saved them all, and stored them in his home in Brighton.

They were untouched in storage until 2007 when I took charge of them.

Please be aware that these items are absolutely unique. There may be "other" copies or duplicates of this script around, but this is the "file" copy held in the production office filing cabinets.

Original 6th Doctor items on eBay -
June 2014

This month on eBay I found a screen-worn Cyberscout costume as used in Attack Of The Cybermen.

It was purchased in as found condition and has ben restored to make it look a lot more like it appeared in the episode. Nice work.

Attack Of The Cybermen
Black Cyberscout costume
UNSOLD

Items like this just do not come along very often! The Cyberscout! Due to a mega life-change (returning to full-time education in my forties and leaving my full-time teaching job---gulp!!!), I have made the painful decision to sell a few of my most prized Doctor Who original props to help with the transition. Up for auction is a serious opportunity…the surviving, original ‘Cyberscout’ screen-used costume from the 1985 story ‘Attack of the Cybermen’. What makes this particular costume so special and truly unique, is that it is one of only two ‘Cyberscout’ costumes made and the only one surviving (the other was the ‘stunt’ version that was cut up for pyrotechnic work in the sewer scenes). Read on for details… and please check out the images which illustrate the description below.

Original 6th Doctor items on eBay -
February 2014

This item was original in a Bonhams auction back in 1991, lot 106.

The original lot consisted on a dozen costumes, with masks included.

I’m not sure how much that lot sold for, but this single gown did pretty well.

Mindwarp
surgical gown
SOLD FOR £337

An original Dr Who costume from the 1986 episode ‘Mindwarp’.

I bought it in 1992 from John Fitton Books and Magazines but I think it was originally part of lot 106 from the 1992 Bonhams auction, which I was lucky enough to attend.

I do not have the surgical mask and I don’t know if this one was actually worn by Colin Baker.
You will receive:- Mindwarp medical gown-Bonhams catalogue and bidding card-John Fitton Books and Magazines catalogue-John Fitton invoice.



Timelash
Guard overall
SOLD FOR £400

An original screen used guard costume from the 6th Doctor (Colin Baker) Doctor Who story: Timelash (originally broadcast March 1985).

Tranquil Repose cape - ON eBAY!

This doesn’t happen very often, but a screen-worn piece of he Sixth Doctor’s wardrobe is currently on eBay!

The blue ankle length cape worn in Revelation Of The Daleks is up for sale.

Two capes were made, one of which was stained with blood during the fight scene, and still bears the marks.

This is the other, which has survived clean and bright as the first day it was worn!

Revelation of the Daleks
Sixth Doctor’s blue cape
SOLD FOR £2,500

For sale: The original screen-used blue and gold cape worn by Colin Baker in the 1985 Doctor Who serial Revelation of the Daleks.
The cape features heavily in the first episode of the serial as The Doctor and Peri travel to Tranquil Repose, a funeral home on the planet Necros.

This cape was purchased from a private collector in October 2011 and is in fine condition. The cloth is still a vivid blue. The gold, curly patterned fasteners represent 6 questions marks (for the 6th Doctor) - something that only occurred to me after I bought it!

NB: One of the six gold bead fasteners is missing and I understand this has been the case since the 1980's. (This could easily be replaced if you were so inclined.)

The item is signed by Colin Baker to the original owner on the inside lining: ''To Gray. A friend of THE Doctor. Colin Baker. No.6."

Screen-used items from classic Doctor Who are highly sought after, and a piece of 'Doctor's costume' as iconic as this is extremely rare. The item is remembered by fans as the one time the Sixth Doctor's garishly coloured outfit was concealed from view!

Original 6th Doctor items on eBay -
November 2013

It’s not often something worn in a Sixth Doctor serial comes up on eBay, so I thought it worth double mentioning this costume.

Original made for The Deadly Assassin, it also put in an appearance in The Trial Of A time Lord.

Trial Of A Time Lord
Pink Time Lord Robes
UNSOLD

Rare Original classic BBC TV Doctor Who Time Lord costume prop Bonhams 2010

This costume was purchased initially from the famous Bonhams Doctor Who Auction sale in February 2010.

The Bonhams Catalogue listing for this item reads:

Doctor Who: The Auction - Costumes and Props from the BBC Archive


154†W
The Deadly Assassin, October 1976
A Time Lord Robe,
of pink coloured, heavy cotton mix fabric, with pleated sleeves and front

Additional:

N.B: A friend has advised me that this costume was also used in the 1986 season story; ‘The Trial of a Timelord’ in the courtroom scenes set on Gallifrey and provided me with a snapshot from this.

Purchase History:
Originally sold at Bonhams in February 2010.
Costume comes fully authenticated with certificate of authenticity from original buyer.
There is a tag supplied with the costume, indicating the lot number from the original sale.
(I am very reluctantly parting with it to make room and funds for new arrival!)

Condition:
Very good condition considering its age; there is no visible damage to the fabric, no rips, tears or holes. There is some production wear to the robe, this is in the form of some slight dirt marks and scuffing to the hem where the long train has trailed along the studio floor.

The costume has been carefully stored since purchase.

This is a one-off piece of Doctor Who ‘history’ in its 50th Anniversary year!
