I LOVE That Google Street View have done this!
For one, it's a nice little Easter Egg, if you look at the Earl's Court Police Box, and Secondly, it gives us a VERY nice all around look of the Current Console Room.

Maybe, if there are more Police Boxes in the World, each one should be of a certain Console Room! (E.G. One Coral, Another Eleventh's First, Maybe even the Gothic one). That be good, wouldn't it?

That would be incredible! But then they'd have to remake all those sets.

Well, I know that they got the Coral Console Room on Display at the 'Doctor Who Experiance' in Cardiff. Along with Recreations of the 1960's & 1980's Console Rooms too. So, those can be used.
I know the McGann Console is in the property of a Private Collector and I'm sure they haven't demolished the Pond Era Console Room.

So, it is possible, yes? =3

There's one at Chatham Dockyard, along with one at Portsmouth Historical Dockyard, correct? ;3

There's a Mk2 Metropolitan Police box in Crich Tramway Village, a Mk3 at Hendon Police College. There's six Glasgow boxes in Glasgow (of course), one at Chatham Dockyard, another at Avoncroft Museum of Historical Buildings, and one at Grampian Transport Museum in Alford.


The one at Earl's Court and one at the Weatherby Police Station in North Yorkshire are replicas.


I know nothing about one at Portsmouth.

Well, the one in Portsmouth is probably just trying to be a mock-up of one...I will admit, the attention to detail isn't that good on the Portsmouth one. The "Pull To Open" sign is in the wrong place and it's too bulky. ^^"

Still, it is possible to have A Console Rooms for each of those Police Boxes, isn't it? =3

I would love that! *sigh*


Now if only someone at Google Maps would be so kind as to actually do that? The Portsmouth box can have the junk console from "The Doctor's Wife". A few of the consoles and rooms are at the Dr. Who Experience in Cardiff! *hint hint*

It would be fun if the BBC and Google Maps did it for the others!

Ah, Yeah. That could work! =3

And yeah, I am aware of the Consoles at the 'Doctor Who' Experiance. =3
They got Bill Hartnell's, Peter Davisons and the one of the RTD era. So, it could work, can't it? =3

I'm glad everyone likes it. Now I just need someone to go in there with a measuring tape and get me some numbers.
