Davison's Celery Aids Children in Need

21-year-old Australian fan Dimitry Telfer won a piece of plastic celery worn in the series by Peter Davison — and autographed by the actor — in an eBay auction raising funds for Children in Need. Telfer's winning bid was £5,500 (AUS $12,760, USD $11,343). The BBC put the signed celery stick up for auction in aid of the children's charity last week, with bidding starting at just 99p.Dimity told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "I couldn't let an opportunity like that get away from me and it's for a great cause. I got into 'Doctor Who' in 2005 and I've been hooked. Peter Davison is my favourite."
