As we probably all know, Google regularly likes to pay homage to pop culture. They've had a bit of Whoniverse fun recently with StreetView.
You may (or may not) know that outside Earls Court Tube Station on Earls Court Road, London there's a replica of a police telephone box (albeit with what appears to be a mobile phone base station on top rather than a light!). If you're using the old Google Maps interface, you should see a double chevron pointing at it (the same kind used to indicate they've done StreetView imagery of a business). If you're using the new interface, look along the Explore bar at the bottom of the screen.
Yes, there is now StreetView imagery inside the TARDIS (so technically, 140 miles West of Earls Court Road inside Roath Lock Studios, Cardiff - but what's 140 miles when you can explore all of time and space?!). You start off on the gangway above the console, and with careful clicking can make your way down to the console level, around the console, up to the door, and even down to the lower level floor underneath the console.
