David Tennant has regenerated – into a commemorative medal.
Royal Mint is producing the limited edition Doctor Who items, the first time TV characters have featured on their medals.
They are being produced as Tennant, the 10th Doctor, prepares to bow out of the Tardis in a two-part Christmas special.
He will regenerate into Matt Smith, the latest actor to take on the time-travelling sci-fi role.
As well as Tennant, the Daleks and the Doctor's robot dog K-9 appear on the gold and silver medals.
Commemorative coin director Dave Knight said: "Just as the Doctor is timeless, so too is the enduring appeal of the TV series which continues to entertain audiences across the world.
"We hope fans everywhere will find these medals a fitting tribute not just to David Tennant, but to the whole Doctor Who story."

In an exclusive interview for BBC Radio 2, actor David Tennant talks to Doctor Who executive producer and show-runner Russell T Davies in a special programme broadcast just days before the Time Lord's latest regeneration.

Who On Who? marks the end of an era in the history of Doctor Who.

He also reveals that he declined the BBC's original request for a series about a young Doctor studying at the Time Lord Academy. David Tennant also asks about Russell's plans for the future. They discuss why it's the right time for them both to leave the series and reveal that they made the decision to leave at roughly the same time.

David's recent episode of The Graham Nortin Show will air in Australia on ABC2 on 26th November at 21:30pm.

Press Release:
David Tennant has admitted he has “nothing to say” to new Time Lord, Matt Smith.

Tennant told Reader’s Digest, in an exclusive interview for the December issue, that he’d spoken to his successor several times “but there’s nothing to say. I think we both thought we’d be able to exchange lots of ideas. But actually it’s none of my business how Matt does it and nothing I say can really help him.”
Talking about his final foray as the Doctor in this year’s Christmas special, Tennant says “This year we’ve done something different. It is still set in Christmas, but it’s perhaps not got quite as much, er…Christmas cheer as before.” Tennant adds that come Christmas Day he’ll be watching his own send off. “Just to enjoy the moment. It’s my last Doctor Who – it will be nice to witness that.”
Tennant is now the proud possessor of his own sonic screwdriver, the Doctor’s signature gizmo. “I have one of the real things! I’ve only once used it to impress a child. It was a charity thing bu…

Fans of Doctor Who will be able to see the first installment of the new animated adventure, Dreamland, tomorrow.
The new adventure sees the Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) and the Tardis touch down in the New Mexican desert where the Time Lord befriends a young waitress Cassie (Georgia Moffett) and her friend Jimmy (Tim Howar). But when the Doctor activates a mysterious alien artefact the US army escorts him to Area 51 – also known as “Dreamland”. Because the team is only using computers to create each episode the producers have packed in plenty of explosions and monsters that wouldn’t be possible in a live-action episode.

A new instalment will be available daily on the Doctor Who website from tomorrow and the full 45 minutes will be broadcast on BBC Two on 5th December.

BBC Film Network have a behind the scenes video of Glorious 39 now online here.

Over 500 seats have already been named in the auditorium, some for a favourite actor, director or to mark an anniversary, for an individual or to commemorate somebody's life. Actors who have already had a seat named after them include David Suchet, John Thaw, Ian Richardson and Dame Peggy Ashcroft, so there's plenty of opportunity for people to name a seat after a favourite actor.
