The purpose of The Space Museum is to illustrate how Doctor Who
has become an accepted part of wider culture. You will find here references to
features of the programme which are out of their original context. The word
Dalek in particular has been absorbed into our language and now stands for much
more than just a pepperpot-shaped monster from Skaro.

"Sucked in!" Mario crowed. "He'll think we've jumped off the
edge. I hope he feels guilty!" Mario dismissed Darren with a last snigger, and
then looked intently at Ben. "Heyyyy," he said slowly, as something dawned on
him. "Look who we've got with us! The Time Lord himself. Got your watch on you,
Benny boy?"

DR WHY •
Length: 22 minutes
Age Group: 15+
Dr Why is a time traveller, cousin of Dr Who. In a creative and humorous way
he shows that science can only answer questions about the internal workings of
the universe. Questions about ultimate meaning and purpose can only be dealt
with by philosophy and religion.
