help with The box of delight prop 1984 tv show staring the 2nd doctor who

I'm glad it isn't just me trying to make a Box of Delights. I'm thinking the Flickr photo is the best source we'll get. From that we can estimate trim, size, and also see the crudity of the switch. Then it'll be messing with paste and an LED to make a suitable light. I reckon we can screen grab an empty interior, and the wiring in the lid should be straight forward if we run the switch via the hinges, and we can power it off watch batteries or similar to keep the bulk down. The pain will be matching the wear of the green lid!

Let me know if you've any leads.

This is the best original image I've seen. Here's the original link to Flickr, and the image shows the original box, as given to the actor who played Kay Harker.

Even seven years on I still find myself doodling ideas for making this. One day...
