[edit]

AN advert featuring three former Dr Whos peering into a car has upset the BBC.

It banned Volkswagen from using the name of the TV series in ads but the motor firm has gone ahead with a poster and press campaign using Jon Pertwee, Peter Davison and Tom Baker to help sell its Golf Estate.

The ads even compare the machine to the Tardis, with the boast: 'We've doctored the Golf. The new estate is 41 per cent bigger on the inside than the hatchback version.'

BBC Enterprises said: 'We are less than amused to see the spirit, if not the legality of our rights to Dr Who being used this way. But we understand the hold Dr Who has on viewers and car buyers.'
