If you're a devout follower of the Doctor, you probably would love to get your hands on a sonic screwdriver. Remote maker 'The Wand Company' has created something just for you.
Not only does this sonic screwdriver look like the real one, it also can control your technology. This prop-shaped gadget is a universal remote that was modeled after the 10th Doctor's sonic screwdriver.
'The Wand Company' were so determined to please fans that they called up the actor who played the 10th Doctor, David Tennant, and asked to see the real prop version used.
Tennant was such a sport that he lent the company his device so that they could make a real and proper replication that was as accurate as possible.
Now you too can travel the universe, of basic cable!
