Doctor Who Breaks Another Guinness World Record

The weekend saw Doctor Who racking up yet another Guinness World Record. This time for – deep breath – ‘Largest Gathering of People Dressed as Doctor Who Characters’

A total of 492 Doctor Who doppelgängers, Daleks and Oods were among those who took part in Mexico City, during La Mole Comic Con.

Peter Capaldi was joined by Executive Producer Brian Minchin to support the record attempt, with the pair both in Mexico to celebrate the premier of Doctor Who, Series 9 on NBC’s Syfy channel.

The Doctor Who series and its passionate fans hold a multitude of Guinness World Records titles from ‘Longest-Running Science Fiction TV Series’ to ‘Most Expensive Dalek’.

Congrats to all involved!
