AS Doctor Who fans await the first appearance of David Tennant’s successor, an eco-friendly mini Dalek has gone on show in Hampshire.

Made entirely from recycled materials, the Dalek is among an A-Z of exhibits on display at Lymington’s St Barbe Museum, which is celebrating its tenth anniversary.

It is the work of Lymington artist Michael Turner, who is renowned for his dazzling and brilliantly coloured metal sculptures.

The Dalek’s appearance at St Barbe follows David Tennant’s exit from Tardis after four years in the role.

Tennant has been succeeded by the youngest ever Doctor, Matt Smith, 26, whose reign as the 11th Time Lord begins at Easter.

Steve Marshall is pictured with the Dalek.
