The TARDIS

Ah ha! You thought you'd seen the last of me didn't you? Now that I've done all the Doctors you thought I'd fade away into nothingness didn't you? Well you were wrong! For I have other things to talk about, other poems to release. And we start these new poems, looking at the main staples of Doctor Who, with the Doctor's dearest and oldest friend; the TARDIS.
Standing for Time and Relative Dimensions In Space this ship has forever made the olden days police telephone box one of the most iconic images in the world. While it's exterior has largely remained the same throughout the shows 48 years it's interior has been subject to much change within the last 30 years. From it's original beginning transmission up until it's original cancellation in 1989 the interior stayed, largely, the same. Come 1996 however and we were shown a much bigger and more gothic interior. Once the revived, not rebooted, series came along we were subjected to a large, coral style design until now we have a interior which completely compliments the 11th Doctor's persona.
The TARDIS has always been, and will always be, the Doctor most trusted and closest friend. Companions may come and go but the one constant in the Time Lord's life is his ship. He stole her and she stole him, both creatures that wished to travel the stars together.


The TARDIS
A thing that looks like a police box.
It can travel through time and space.
‘Borrowed’ by the Doctor; always meant to return it
Stuck in its iconic image back in 1963, few have ever fixed it.
It goes on and on, infinite in its capacity
The Doctor’s greatest and oldest friend, the last of its kind
