DOCTOR WHO used his Tardis to drop in on a Teesside charity fun day.

The Time Lord was a special guest at an activity day held at autism charity Daisy Chain, in Norton.

Two young fans enjoying themselves were Adam and Sophie Bodocs, from Billingham.

“Adam is obsessed with Doctor Who,” said mum Claire.

“It’s hard entertaining them both sometimes but there’s always things going on here. We can’t thank Daisy Chain enough.”

Dad Anthony added: “It’s a fantastic place.

“It’s one of the few places that you can come and relax as they understand the problems.”

A host of activities took place across the day at Daisy Chain.

Youngsters met The Doctor and took part in activities including a Dalek question time.

Angela Middleton, family support adviser at Daisy Chain, said: “Lots of our children have quite specific interests and love Doctor Who.

“We hoped it might also attract some new families along and we have had five or six new families who have visited.”
