A DOCTOR Who music show is coming to the region next May.

The Doctor Who Symphonic Spectacular will be performed at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastle on Thursday, May 28.

It will feature more than 100 performers conducted by Ben Foster, who conducts and orchestrates the musical scores for the hugely popular long-running BBC series.

The music will be performed by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and members of the BBC National Chorus of Wales.

The show will feature many of the Doctor’s enemies, including the Daleks and the Cybermen, plus footage from the forthcoming series eight.

The identity of the guest presenter will be announced early next year.
