The auction is to take place over four days between November 3-9 at BAFTA 195 in Piccadilly, central London.

Propstore said it will hold a preview exhibition at its office in Rickmansworth between October 4 and November 2 so that fans can see the props and costumes up close and ask questions to specialists.

Stephen Lane, Propstore CEO, said: “Following our Los Angeles Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction in June, which saw some of our best ever auction results, we’re thrilled to be back again with another incredible sale.

"Featuring a collection over 1,500 lots, we have an amazing array of content, ranging from Fraggle Rock to Friday the 13th – there really is something for everyone.”
