I’m a Doctor Who superfan — I’ve built up an army of Daleks over 30 years

A DOCTOR Who fanatic has shown off his 30-year collection of memorabilia — including Daleks from across the decades.

Phil Stevens, 55, has amassed countless original models and replicas and is struggling to find room for it all.

Phil Stevens has lost count of how many life-sized models he has - and tells his wife he has no idea where they are coming from. The 55-year-old has been building and restoring models since he was a child and now has an army of Daleks, Cybermen and patrol robots living just minutes from his house.
Phil Stevens has amassed countless original models and replicas of Doctor Who memorabilia – keeping it all in a storage unit

On his wife’s orders, nothing is in the house and he has an army of Daleks, Cybermen and robots in a storage unit.

Phil, of Stratton, Wilts, has been building and restoring models since he was a child and now makes a living out of it.

He said: “My wife is very pleased my collection is in a storage unit.

“I don’t think she would like weird creatures lurking around the house.

“It takes up a lot of room. One Dalek would certainly ‘exterminate’ most of the space in an average-sized room.”

His favourite is a full-size 1960s replica of the Golden Emperor Dalek.

He added: “With my Doctor Who collection, my interest is more in the production side of the show.

“I have tended to concentrate on props, models and paperwork, like scripts, designs and production office items, like letters, memos, location planning rather than memorabilia, like autographs, posters or toys.

“I’ve been collecting for over thirty years as I’ve been a fan of the show, both the ‘classic’ and the new series, for as long as I can remember.”
