Greatwood Primary School pupil Finlay Burkinshaw discovers a sinister side to his classmates
Doctor Who fan Finlay Burkinshaw won a national drawing competition - for the second year running.
Ten-year-old Finlay, who goes to Skipton’s Greatwood Primary School, entered the competition in Doctor Who magazine, although he had not expected to win.
“I was really shocked to win again, but really proud,” he said.
Finlay’s picture of daleks in the sunlight, proved a big hit with the judges, and was rewarded with a toy tardis.
And he’s not written off entering the competition for a third year running.
