Doctor Who has Kylie, Catherine Tate, Whogasms AND gadgetry: a round-up of the best of the best

David Tennant is a very lucky man. First he gets a unique chance to perve over everyone's favourite pop princess, Kylie Minogue, in the forthcoming Christmas special. Now the role of his assistant will be filled by Catherine Tate whilst current assistant Freema Agyeman is paying an extended visit to Torchwood (surely the finest bit of wordplay since JK Rowling gave us "Diagon Alley"?). And that's after he's already inspired the Whogasm.

To top it all, he gets to absolutely wallow in gadgetry, from the time-travelling, space-stretching TARDIS to his handy "psychic paper". I've taken a closer look at some of the gadgetry inspired by the sole surviving Time Lord of Gallifrey...

1. Sonic Screwdriver

For £8, I can't guarantee that this version of the Doctor's trusty tool (I'm sorry) will be quite as useful since it's not even (as far as I can tell) an actual screwdriver. But it has a pen nib and a blue light. So that's okay.

2. Doctor Who Cyberman Helmet

The Cybermen are among the creepiest and saddest of recurrent Who villains. Automatons who wish to "upgrade" the human race into robotic immortality, their blank faces are alarmingly devoid of any humanity. So we thought we'd try and suppress one of the most bubbly and outgoing Shiny personalities by putting one on Susi's head.

3. Doctor Who Dalek Sec Hybrid Voice FX Mask

If you can't get enough of voice-changing helmets but the Cyberman was a bit too much for you, you could always try being the squidgy mess that results when Dalek meets human and merges. Mmm.

4. USB TARDIS Hub

No Time Lord complete without an interplanetary police box, and therefore no fan should be without one, either. I make no promises about the inside being bigger than the outside, but you will get the very best bits of having a Time And Relative Dimension In Space machine (no, I didn't look it up, I already knew). The time travelling? No, the flashing blue light and "vworp" noises of course.

5. Doctor Who Mobile Phone Charms

If you want to keep your Who fangirlism to an elegant minimum, these tiny £5 charms from Firebox may be the way to go. Go on, dangle a Dalek from your BlackBerry... you know you want to.
