Doctor Who Doctor Sonic Screwdriver

Product Information

In a special reveal clip, it was shown that this new sonic screwdriver has a similar look and feel to David Tennant’s first one, glowing blue at the end with a mainly grey and black handle. This one was far simpler in appearance than the last screwdriver with a simple steel body made from melted spoons, and a crystal on the tip that glowed amber while in use, taken from a Stenza transport chamber. Hold a normal remote control about 3 cm from the tip of the Sonic while the tip is glowing steadily, and briefly press and release the normal remote control button for the function you want to program on to that gesture.

The sonic screwdriver affected creatures in sometimes lethal ways, as it could destroy a Dalek's brain when placed against the casing's head ( PROSE: War of the Daleks) and was once used to decapitate the King of Beasts. In the 50th anniversary special, the War Doctor said that sonic screwdrivers were "scientific instruments, not water pistols," and while this may be true, we can’t really get on board with his plain metal rod of a screwdriver.The sonic screwdriver also affected alive beings: the Third Doctor used it to cure Henry VIII of his cataracts, ( PROSE: Hiccup in Time) distract giant maggots, ( TV: The Green Death) break a hypnotic trance ( TV: Death to the Daleks) and overload the brains of Space Greyhounds.
