Description

After so many years waiting, I finally got to see the Earl's Court Police Public Call Box / Tardis !!!!!!!! :D

Yes, it is somewhat in-accurate to the Doctors Tardis, such as the windows being a bit wrong and the Police Box lamp looking wrong as it's said to have a CCTV camera built on top where a normal lamp would be.

It was erected on the 18th April 1996, and wither or not it's CCTV actually is in use Ive no idea, but this Police Box has become very popular with Doctor Who fans, many photo's of it with Doctor Who fan's can be found on Deviant Art, Google and YouTube -

That pretty cool you are one lucky guy the only places I get to see in person is where they filmed Scarface, Miami Vice and Bad Boys films. At least you get to go to Cardiff one day or get to see this version of the Tardis anytime.
