10 Attractions That Need To Be In A Doctor Who Theme Park

Earlier this month Paramount announced the creation of a new theme park with BBC Worldwide involvement. Based in Kent and opening around 2020, the idea is that it will utilise some of the BBC's most popular shows and characters including Sherlock, Top Gear and, of course, Doctor Who? Naturally fans up and down the country got a little excited at the prospect - a Doctor Who theme park!? - as it's never been done before. What would it be like? What could be there? With the rumour mill already in overdrive about a potential Doctor Who-themed Dark Ride opening at Thorpe Park in 2016 (not confirmed, just very heavily rumoured), this announcement was pretty exciting indeed. Doctor Who rollercoasters? Actual Whovian rides? New attractions? The truth is, Whovians are spoilt. There's the fantastic Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff, an interactive museum of sorts incorporating set and walking tours, there's never long before another mini-Who exhibition opens which tend to be nationwide, and that's without considering the sheer amount of Doctor Who conventions which are held up and down the UK every year, as well as the amount of Doctor Who guests that make it to the standard film and comic conventions. Can any self-respecting Whovian really ask for more? Well the answer is, obviously, yes. The information is very short at the minute and there's no confirmation that Doctor Who will even definitely be involved (but with it being one of the BBC's biggest shows it absolutely HAS to be). Of course the park's open date is still a really long way off but this is something to look forward to so how could Paramount utilise Doctor Who? Here are ten ideas, ranging from the painfully obvious to the downright ridiculous. Hold on tight!
