The BBC Press Office's release of information regarding programmes on Tuesday the 6th of October contains a small snippet of interest to Doctor Who fans. The BBC's long-running children's magazine programme Blue Peter - which has enjoyed a close relationship with Doctor Who since the 1960s - will be launching "a Doctor Who competition, which will see one lucky viewer design a Tardis console that will feature in the new series."

It is not known in what context this "Tardis console" will be used in Doctor Who, nor when it may appear. Previous Blue Peter competitions have seen young fans design a monster (the Abzorbaloff from Love and Monsters in series two) and appear in the series (Utopia, in series three).

That is interesting, and three possibilities spring to mind:

1. More Tardis rooms will be shown, including a second control room.
2. As seen in the now pretty well know shooting pics, the outside of the Tardis changes, so perhaps the inside does at well, although it seems rather late in the day for that.
3.

It has something to do with the Master's return or the return of other Timelords, both things that we know will happen due to the Timothy Dalton pic and the Comic-Con trailer that leaked to You Tube.

This will be interesting. I've been wanting to see more of the TARDIS interior. It will be interesting to see what the winner of this contest comes up with.

Yes it will, I would love to see another Tardis all together as well, as it would look great with modern effects, I just hope that after revealing this it is not just some cheap cameo or something, although I would guess they would have to get their moneys worth out of it if they went thorough the trouble to build it.

Yes, that's why I'm thinking that it'll most likely be a secondary console. Though that may also mean that I'm hoping that they don't change the existing console. I rather like it. It's the best thing about the new interior design.

[Tomspy77]

Well, we have already seen that the Tardis exterior is changed under Moffat's control, so i would think he interior might get a make over as well. However, it could be a secondary control room, who knows how many console rooms the Tardis actually has...

Update!

As previously reported here on the Doctor Who News Page, the BBC children's magazine programme Blue Peter has officially launched its new competition for young fans to design a TARDIS console. The contest is for children aged between 6 and 12, and the final winning design will be chosen by Eleventh Doctor actor Matt Smith. It is specified that the design "must incorporate household objects," and entrants are advised to "make sure it really feels as if the Doctor has put it together."
