DOCTOR Who fans have hit out at being charged around £230 to meet and be pictured with TV Time Lords.

Stars including Christopher Eccleston and Peter Capaldi are to appear at the annual London Film and Comic Con.

A “diamond pass” — which inc­ludes a snap with Chris, 54, or Peter, 60, outside the Tardis, an “exclusive mug” and an autograph — will cost £235 and £225 respectively.

Selfies with either former Doctor will cost up to £85.

Last night a fan said: “We look forward to this event every year, but this time around the money-grabbing prices are ridiculous — they’re taking the p***.

“The signing of Chris Eccleston was a massive coup — but I’m not paying £230 for a selfie and a mug. They must think we’re mugs.” By contrast, the fee is just £15 for a photoshoot with the BBC show’s sixth Time Lord, Colin Baker, 74.

Other celebs at the event in July, including Hollywood’s Megan Fox, The Office’s Lucy Davis and rock star Meat Loaf, will be charging as little as £15 for an autograph.

Every year thousands of comic book fans travel to the capital dressed as their favourite film and TV heroes.
Fans of the tenth Doctor, David Tennant, 47, are being charged more than £325 to meet him at an equivalent US event next month.

A Gold VIP Package at Wizard World Des Moines in Iowa includes a signed souvenir and a Doctor Who goodie bag.
