#SILENTBUTDEADLYWEDNESDAY! I think just about EVERY Doctor Who fan at sometime, has wanted one. I remember as a kid, using my wardrobe as a #TARDIS.
Everything was going well with me and my sister and the game...until my
re-enacting of a meteor storm, toppled the wardrobe, where it fell
forward, onto its door...with us inside! ...Don't try this at home, kids
IF ONLY that whiz, Jason Onion and this #TARDIS had been around back
then! It would have saved me a nose-bleed and my Sis, a black eye! NOW,
Jason has made it so YOU don't have to go through such embarrassing
shenanigans. You could be the owner of your VERY OWN TARDIS! WATCH the
video and ALL will be revealed 🙂 Great work Jason!

AS A CHILD, I can remember spending many a Saturday afternoon in my grandmother's bedroom, standing inside her huge wardrobe... pretending it was the #DRWHO Tardis! ..and I wasn't alone, many of my mates did this in wardrobes too!! It all was part of the ritual... like playing Dr Who in the school playground, with the hood up on your anorak, and your left sleeve and arm extended, waving around shouting, 'Exterminate!'... at dinner ladies!
IF ONLY I had known Jason Charles Onion, back then! Because he was more than likely doing the same thing too! As an adult, he is the creator of MAGIC..believe me. Jason, is the guy every Dr Who fan would want as a mate, a buddy...because not only does he have wonderful ideas and schemes..he is a DOER. He puts these ideas into fearless practice. A while ago, to top the many other amazing things he has created, he made a full size, large as life...just like the real thing...TARDIS! Unlike many people who love Dr Who and celebrate and create props and stuffs from the series, he SHARES what he does.
THIS TARDIS...known as the Herne Bay Tardis... (Look up Herne Bay, it's a Oysters left nostril distance from Peter Cushing's home town of Whitstable) has generated THOUSANDS of pounds for charity. How? Jason takes the Tardis out to events, signings, fetes, conventions, sunny days...or even just sets it up on the beach, where folks have their photo taken with it, stare at it nostalgically all glassy eyed...then hand over their money for the good cause...clever eh? Much of what Jason generates donations for, is the BBC charity Children In Need. It's very much like the MD Telethon in the US and raises millions every year, when broadcast for one night on the BBC in November. Now, Dr Who is of course, a BBC programme, so you can see the connection!?
THIS YEAR, Jason has decided to do something VERY different for Children In Need. Jason's Tardis which has generated thousands of pounds over the years, is being AUCTIONED. The response, I am sure will be, HUGE. But, if you ever had the need for a Tardis in your life, now is the time to start selling the cat, your granny and those family heirlooms... it's iconic, it's history, it's wonderful...it's the same tardis that Peter Cushing's Dr Who whizzed around the big screen in.... and it's part of my childhood and maybe yours too? We'll be posting regular up dates about the prep, the last year of public appearances and news right up until NOVEMBER 10th, the actual day of auction! Start saving, help Jason and start sharing..make this an event that will make a difference for many, many children... Watch the short video and give him a LIKE 😉 Thank you 😉 - Marcus
I am extremely sad to hear about to hear about the passing of
television and radio broadcaster TERRY WOGAN. A giant in the history of
the BBC, the face of Children In Need, Eurovision..so much more. An all
around very nice guy. Peter Cushing appeared on his BBC tv talk show
many times. Five, I think? Terry had enormous respect for Peter and it
came through in the interviews. Wogan made time for Peter in his later
interviews, never rushing him, patronising....just kind and patience.
Another institution, sadly leaves us. God bless Terry.
Peter Cushing's fourth appearance on Wogan on
the 24th February 1988
