Hi
Just watching the "anti-matter from amsterdam" special feature on the "Arc of Infinity" DVD and the interviews of cast members etc appear to have been filmed in the davison era console room!!! Well, the walls and roundels are there anyway!

Are these original sets or very good reproduction's? They do look quite new!

I bet I know where they're from...

Just a guess, but read here...

And check out www.interocitor-media.com/tardis there's his original render on that page somewhere :)

The breaking strain is fast approaching, guns and riots.
Politicians gamble and lie to save their skins,
And the press get fed the scapegoats,
Public Enema Number One.

Wow! Pretty impressive  :D

However, the panel's were not CGI, they were real with red & green flashing illumination. you can see these colours reflecting on the side of people's faces during there interviews!

Has anyone else got the DVD?

I haven't got the DVD, but I think I can guess what they are - the walls made up for the documentary, "30 Years in the TARDIS" which were subsequently bought by a private collector and often appeared as the stage setting for the Panopticon conventions.

They're not an exact match to the original set, but are a close (ish) reproduction, sporting rows of 4 roundels, then 3 roundels with a half roundel at the top and bottom.

That's certainly what they appear to be to my eyes.

Weren't they actually built for a convention and borrowed by the BBC for "Dimensions in Time" and "30 Year in the TARDIS"..?
