An interactive Doctor Who sculpture made from refurbished technology has been unveiled on London's South Bank.

The "Art of Regeneration" sculpture shows actor David Tennant regenerating into the 15th Doctor, played by Ncuti Gatwa.

The piece was revealed on Friday to mark the show's 60th anniversary.

Sarah Bold from BBC Studios called the "show-stopping" sculpture "an incredible tribute to a genuine moment of event TV".

The installation, which acts as a homage to the show's regeneration process, will be on show near the Oxo Tower until Monday.

The 7ft by 9ft sculpture was made by Global Street Art using hundreds of discarded devices and includes some sonic screwdrivers.
