To mark the launch of the partnership, on July 16 travellers through Terminal 5 will be able to enjoy performances by the London Philharmonic Orchestra. In addition, Doctor Who novelist Jenny Colgan, author of the recently released Doctor Who: Dark Horizons will also be signing books for fans.
Visitors travelling through Heathrow Airport in London from Tuesday are
to be entertained with a range of Doctor Who themed experiences
including appearances from Cybermen, TARDIS photobooths, displays of
props and memorabilia, and augmented reality hotspots.
The BBC worldwide event, in partnership with Heathrow, is to celebrate 50 years of Doctor Who. Travellers will be able to take pictures of themselves and friends on alien worlds and be menaced by monsters from the comfort of the TARDIS photobooths. Doctor Who passports will be available containing giveaways including a free episode to download, information about Doctor Who activities in terminal over the summer, and a free digital copy of Doctor Who Adventures Magazine.

our Doctor Who celebrations and this partnership with Heathrow is a
fantastic way of capturing the attention of people from across the globe

Susan Goldsmith, Operations Director at Heathrow Terminal 5 said
I
am delighted that Heathrow has been chosen to host this much loved
British iconic series. With visitors from over 180 destinations
worldwide, as the UK’s only hub airport, Heathrow offers a fantastic
opportunity to bring the Doctor Who experience to an international
audience this summer.
