Blue Peter launches competition to win a tour of the top-secret Doctor Who set

Gold Blue Peter badge holder, David Tennant, is returning as the Fourteenth Doctor later this year for three special episodes to coincide with the 60th anniversary. In a message to fans, he mentions the “brand new Blue Peter competition for Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary, the show that is – we all know The Doctor is well over 900 years old!” 

Editor of Blue Peter, Ellen Evans, says: “We’re celebrating two 60th anniversaries this year, for Doctor Who and for the Blue Peter badge. The two programmes have collaborated many times over the years so I’m thrilled to be able to offer such a unique and exciting experience.”
 
The competition is open for entries from 5pm on Friday 28 April when full details of how to enter, including rules and privacy notice, will be on the Blue Peter website at www.bbc.co.uk/bluepeter
 
The competition closes at 5pm on Monday 15 May 2023.

The competition winner and top runners up will be announced in a Doctor Who takeover on CBBC and BBC iPlayer later in the year to mark the return of the iconic show which promises to be a must-see for all young Doctor Who fans.
 
Viewers can also learn how to create a TARDIS for their bookshelves in a classic Blue Peter ‘make’ shown on the programme last Friday (21 April) and available on BBC iPlayer, and fans in the UK can also head to the Blue Peter website to create their own sonic screwdriver.
 
New episodes of Blue Peter are on CBBC and iPlayer every Friday at 5pm. Blue Peter is the longest running kids' TV show in the world and is produced by BBC Studios Kids & Family.
