The Bonhams Entertainment Memorabilia Sale was last week, and the scant three Doctor Who items all sold.
The Peter Davison items, a Script from Ressurrection Of The Daleks and a Sea Devil Costume from Warriors Of The Deep both sold, the latter for £2,280 nearly double its estimate of £800 to £1,200.
The solitary Jon Pertwee item went for pretty much on the money, selling for £3,240 having an estimate of £3,000 to £4,000.
I went along to the viewing to see for myself what it was all about and check it over.

Merry Christmas to all my readers!
I can’t believe a year has flown by since I last wished everyone a Happy Christmas.
Looking back though, a lot has happened and I’ve completed or started a number of amazing projects.
From updating my Tennant Coat; making a Five Coat or two; starting a replica Tennant suit jacket using original GAP Trousers; making a couple of Inverness Capes (must get round to writing that up!); as well as some smaller item such as Five Hatbands, Six Cravats and Seven Hankies.
However, I think the most exciting has been starting work on a replica Six Frock Coat, which I am so looking forward to getting done next year.
I hope you’ll join me in the following months as it starts to come together.

Bonhams auction - 15th December 2010
Bonhams December Film and Entertainment Memorabilia sale is upon us soon, and again there are a few Doctor Who items on offer - and a few is all it is!
There are only three items, one of which, a jacket worn by Jon Pertwee, wasn't even screen used.
It feels like the left overs from a car boot sale - very disappointing.
Anyway, the jacket is listed below.
I have separated the items by Doctor era, and you can see the rest of the items here:
Dr. Who: a black velvet jacket worn by Jon Pertwee,
with braid to lapels and cuffs, single button to front, labelled Austin Reed, the right sleeve inscribed inside by Jon Pertwee in silver pen, To Dewey My very own! Worn for ''The Doc'' back in '69!!, also with some other very indistinct writing, believed by Pertwee when signing the jacket at a convention in February 1991
Estimate: £3,000 - 4,000
Sold for £3,240
