Doctor Who Asylum of the Daleks costume, props and more on display...

In the first episode of the seventh series of the current Doctor Who revival, the alien time-traveler and his Companions, 'Amy' and 'Rory', find themselves captured by his ancient enemies, the Daleks, and trapped on a planet where insane Daleks are exiled.

This chained Dalek, red costume and backdrop doorway behind were featured in the episode featuring Matt Smith as the 'Eleventh Doctor' and photographed on display at the Doctor Who Experience in Cardiff Bay, Wales on May 20, 2013.

In this episode we surprisingly got our first glimpse of the Doctor's forthcoming Companion, 'Clara Oswald', or 'Oswin Oswald' as she is called in the Asylum of the Daleks. 'Oswin' had crash landed in the spacecraft 'Alaska' on the planet and had been converted into full Dalek form, although her mind had retreated into the fantasy that she was still human.

The episode featured many different Dalek designs, so if you're a fan of these iconic Doctor Who villains, be sure to also check out these different generations of the Daleks on display, including their creator 'Davros'.

as Oswin Oswald in Asylum of the Daleks

Jenna Louise Coleman makes her first on-screen Doctor Who series appearance as the intelligent and flirty 'Oswin Oswald' and this is the outfit we see her in before we realise it's all in her imagination, and she is in fact a metal monstrosity.

If you're a fan of this Doctor Who Companion, here's another costume worn by the actress when she returns as 'Clara Oswald' (a mystery for the Doctor to solve, of why she keeps appearing and dying in different timelines) and the leaf bookmark and her '101 Places to See' book prop, given to her by her mother, that featured in 'The Rings of Akhaten' seventh season episode.
