Yep, you got it. Doctor Who fans are now able to control their television set with a Sonic Screwdriver, launched to coincide with start of the seventh series of Doctor Who on September 1; the Sonic Screwdriver Universal Remote Control is based on the famous tool that was first introduced to the BBC show in 1968.

Produced by The Wand Company Limited, who famously appeared on Dragon's Den and went on to achieve massive success with the Kymera Wand; a remote control wand that aspiring wizards could control a whole host of devices with by gesturing and rotating the wand.

The Sonic Screwdriver has 13 different gestures that can be programmed to perform a certain function or to control everything from TV’s and DVD players to stereos and iPod docks, in fact any product that has an infra-red remote. Alongside the remote control functionality, the device also has a range of FX sound effects, including all the noises made by Sonic Screwdrivers used by Time Lords throughout the ages.


Immaculately designed and packed full of features, the die cast metal model is hand detailed, with polished copper plating and an authentic soft touch grip. A locking code prevents anyone but the intended ‘Doctor' from using it. It also comes in it's own display case that is designed to look like the console of the Tardis. When placed in the display cradle while in FX mode the tip flashes every two seconds and after 1,963 flashes – set to the year 1963 when Dr Who first aired – it emits one of 11 morse code messages.
