Doctor Who fans will get a chance to buy Matt Smith's costume as part of Children in Need.
The actor's outfit from the Neil Gaiman-penned episode 'The Doctor's Wife' will go up for auction on Friday night.
A short Doctor Who sketch will air as part of this year's broadcast.
Penned by showrunner Steven Moffat, the skit will see the Doctor offer viewers the chance to win his famed tweed jacket, bow-tie and other items.
"I'd say the tweed jacket or the bow-tie are the most iconic - although the boots are my personal favourite," said Matt Smith. "I hope people donate generously for BBC Children in Need because it's a wonderful cause - and we've got to beat last year's total."
The online auction will be conducted at www.bbc.co.uk/Pudsey and will close on Monday, November 21. The successful bidder will also win a copy of the sketch script written by Steven Moffat and signed by Matt Smith.
In addition, the title of this year's Doctor Who Christmas special will be revealed during the Children in Need broadcast and viewers will be treated to an exclusive sneak peek of the festive adventure.
Children in Need begins on Friday at 7pm on BBC One.
