If you've ever been on the Warner Bros Studio Tour, this is like that but quite a lot smaller. There are lots of costumes - one from each of the Doctors and several from the most recent seasons' companions. There's also a few Tardis sets - one of which was part of the interactive experience section (which involved you getting captured by Daleks, Mam was quite confused!) - the one I was really excited to see was 9 and 10's from the new series.
When you go upstairs there are more costumes - most of which are the monsters! There are also a few 'outisdes' of Tardises (Tardisi?) for you to pose in front of, and some displays showing you how they make the sets/alien models. I do wish they had put more props in, but I guess it's because they're constantly using them in filming so wouldn't want to keep changing the displays. It took about an hour and a half to go around in total, and of course there's a 'little shop' at the end!

| The first Tardis console from the new series - it's so detailed (and pretty battered!) I haven't got many more decent pics from downstairs as the lighting was quite low. |
 |
| 'Daleks through the ages' - they'd also got Davros there! |
 |
| In the evening we went for another toddle around the Bay, and managed to find the 'secret' entrance to the Torchwood Hub. It's now been turned into a shrine to Ianto Jones - there's a plaque and many many lovely tributes! Quite corny but it's rather nice as there are no Torchwood sets to go look around. |

| We also went for supper at an awesome place called Pie Minister. The food. Is. Amazeballs. I believe there's one in London aswell, so we'll be hunting that down next time we're there for sure. |
