Tom Baker, David Tennant and Patrick Troughton are to feature on a special set of Royal Mail stamps in 2013.

The collection marks the 50th anniversary of sci-fi show Doctor Who, with all 11 Doctors getting their own first class stamp.

Four of the show's most notorious villains, including the Daleks and the Cybermen, star on the second class set.

The show first ran from 1963 to 1989. A successful revival returned it to Saturday night schedules in 2005.

Andrew Hammond of the Royal Mail said the commemorative selection "pay tribute to the brilliant actors that have played the Doctor over the years, as well as the adversaries that helped make the show so popular".

The time travelling adventurer is currently played by Matt Smith.

Maybe? They offer a different registration page for those outside of the UK - http://www.royalmail...gister-overseas

Any half decent stamp collector shop will have dozens of the sets once they are released, and yes I do believe the Royal Mail does deliver to the US, at least they used to, and you could also signup to receive commemorative stamps as soon as they were issued.
