London Film Fair

01/08/2026

Over the years at both London Film Fair and Autographica we have worked with numerous actors and production staff from the worlds of Doctor Who. Sadly many of these are no longer with us and many more signed on only one occasion.

If you were not able to meet them at the show we have a range of items from the past 15 plus years available on our shop for purchase. All items are hand signed originals from the shows and we guarantee that they will pass any 3rd party authentication process.

As they are originals, quantities are limited, particular for some of the older items from the Autographica days so don't leave it too late if you see something you need for your collection. The link below will take you straight to the Doctor Who Section,

Thanks

The Film Fair/ Autographica Team
