The Daleks were created by writer Terry Nation and designed by BBC designer Raymond Cusick. Terry Nation ( August 8 1930 – March 9 1997) was a Welsh Television Screenwriter. Raymond Cusick, also known as Ray Cusick or Raymond P Cusick, was a designer for the British Broadcasting Corporation. They were introduced in December 1963 in the second Doctor Who serial. The Daleks (also known as The Mutants) is a serial in the British science fiction television series Doctor [2] They became an immediate hit with viewers, featuring in many subsequent serials and two 1960s motion pictures. They have become synonymous with Doctor Who, and their behaviour and catchphrases are part of British popular culture. Popular culture (or pop culture) is the Culture — patterns of human activity and the symbolic structures that give such activities significance and importance — "Hiding behind the sofa whenever the Daleks appear" has even been cited as an essential element of British cultural identity.

The word "Dalek" has entered the Oxford English Dictionary[4] and other major dictionaries; the Collins Dictionary defines it rather broadly as "any of a set of fictional robot-like creations that are aggressive, mobile, and produce rasping staccato speech".

Physical characteristics
Externally, Daleks resemble human-sized salt or pepper shakers around five to six feet (152 to 183 cm) tall, with a single mechanical eyestalk mounted on a rotating dome, a gunstalk containing an energy weapon (or "death ray"), which can also be fitted with a projectile weapon, and a telescoping robot manipulator arm. Salt and pepper shakers are Condiment holders used in Western culture that are designed to allow food eaters to distribute Edible salt The death ray or death beam was a theoretical Particle beam or Electromagnetic weapon of the 1920s through the 1930s that was claimed to have been invented A robot is a mechanical or Virtual Artificial agent In practice it is usually an electro-mechanical system which by its appearance or movements In most cases, the manipulator resembles a sink plunger, but Daleks have been shown with arms that end in a tray, a mechanical claw, or other specialised equipment like flamethrowers and cutting torches. A plunger is a common device used to release stoppages in Plumbing. A flamethrower is a mechanical device designed to project a long controllable stream of Fire. Daleks have used their plunger-like manipulator arms to interface with technology,[1] crush a man's skull,[1] measure the intelligence of a subject,[8] and extract the brainwaves from a man's head (fatal, although it is implied that it doesn't need to be). [9] Dalek casings are made of a bonded polycarbide material dubbed "dalekanium" by a human in The Dalek Invasion of Earth. For the Software development tool targeting the Symbian OS, see Carbide The Dalek Invasion of Earth is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which originally aired [10][11] The Daleks also use this term for the material. [8]
The lower half of a Dalek's shell is covered with protrusions — "Dalek bumps" — which are spheres embedded in the casing. [1][8] These are described as "sense globes" or sensors in The Doctor Who Technical Manual by Mark Harris (which is of uncertain canonicity). This article is not about Literary canons of influential works of fiction but about the concept of a canon which defines the world of a particular fictional series [12] However, in the 2005 series episode "Dalek", they are also part of a self-destruct system. This is a list of Doctor Who television serials and episodes. [1] The casings are vulnerable to "bastic"-headed bullets, and when breached tend to explode. This is not to say that Daleks wear explosive armour, but it implies that a lot of destructive power is needed to destroy Daleks. [13] The armour has a forcefield that evaporates most bullets and absorbs most types of energy weapons, though normally ineffective firepower can be concentrated on the eyestalk to blind the Daleks. [14] It appears that the Dalekanium panels which constitute the 'skirt' can also be detached without damaging the shell or affecting the Dalek's performance. Leading on from this, a Dalekanium panel was removed from a Dalek and split into three to form the basis for an energy conductor atop the Empire State Building to channel the energy of 'The Greatest Solar Flare for a Thousand Years'. Despite looking somewhat blackened and melted at the edges, the panel appeared unharmed. [8][15]
The creature inside the mechanical casing is depicted as soft and repulsive in appearance and vicious even without its mechanical armour. Resurrection of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast The first-ever glimpse of a Dalek mutant, in The Daleks, was a claw peeking out from under a coat after it had been removed from its casing. The Daleks (also known as The Mutants) is a serial in the British science fiction television series Doctor [16] The actual appearance of mutants has varied, but in most cases they are octopoid, multi-tentacled creatures. The The Doctor described the Daleks as "little green blobs in bonded polycarbide armour" in Remembrance of the Daleks, in which a Dalek mutant was seen to have a bionically augmented claw. Armour (or armor) is protective covering most commonly manufactured from metals to prevent damage from being inflicted to an individual or a vehicle through use of direct contact Remembrance of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast Bionics (also known as biomimetics, biognosis, Biomimicry, or bionical creativity engineering) is the application of biological [17] In Resurrection of the Daleks a Dalek creature, separated from its casing, attacks and severely injures a human soldier. Resurrection of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast [18] The revived series has generally depicted mutants as having one eye and an exposed brain, however the mutants depicted in "The Parting of the Ways" also had a second, smaller eye. " The Parting of the Ways " is an episode in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast The same episode states that these mutants were built from human materials. In "Daleks in Manhattan", a mutant (Dalek Sec) demonstrates the ability to engulf a human with a large, sack-like membrane. "Daleks in Manhattan" is an episode of the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who. The Cult of Skaro was an elite order of Daleks from the television series Doctor Who, and the first individual Daleks whose recurring nature has been explicit [8]
However, as the creature inside is rarely seen on screen, the misconception exists that Daleks are wholly mechanical robots. [19] (Albeit one squad of Daleks locked in a war with the Movellans did appear to have become fully robotic. [20]) The interdependence of biological and mechanical components makes the Daleks a type of cyborg. A cyborg is a Cybernetic Organism ( ie, an organism that has both artificial and natural systems The Ninth Doctor, in "Dalek", described the Dalek as a genius: it could run through an electronic lock's billion combinations in seconds and download all of the information on the internet into its memory, showing the union of the biological and mechanical components. The Ninth Doctor is the ninth official incarnation of the Fictional character known as the Doctor, in the long-running BBC television [1]
The voice of a Dalek is electronic; the Dalek creature is apparently unable to make much more than squeaking sounds when out of its casing. [18] Once the mutant is removed, the casing itself can be entered and operated by humanoids, as seen in The Daleks,[16] The Space Museum[21] and Planet of the Daleks. The Space Museum is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in Planet of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast [22] In The Daleks, Ian Chesterton disguises himself by hiding in a Dalek shell but initially speaks with his own voice until his friends remind him to talk like a Dalek. Ian Chesterton is a Fictional character in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who and a companion [16] Daleks also have a radio communicator built into their shells, and emit an alarm to summon other nearby Daleks if the casing is opened from outside. Radio is the transmission of signals by Modulation of electromagnetic waves with frequencies below those of visible Light. The Dalek's eyepiece is its most vulnerable spot, and impairing its vision often leads to a blind, panicked firing of its weapon. On one occasion they were shown to be susceptible to extreme cold (Planet of the Daleks),[23] but in the revived series have been shown flying in the cold vacuum of space without trouble.
For many years, it was thought that due to their gliding motion Daleks were unable to tackle stairs. A cartoon from Punch pictured a group of Daleks at the foot of a flight of stairs with the caption, "Well, this certainly buggers our plan to conquer the Universe". Punch was a British weekly Magazine of Humour and Satire published from 1841 to 1992 and from 1996 to 2002 [24] In a scene from the serial Destiny of the Daleks, the Doctor and companions escape from Dalek pursuers by climbing into a ceiling duct. Destiny of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast History of the Doctor Who companion When Doctor Who was created the dramatic structure of the programme's cast was rather different from the hero-and-sidekick The Fourth Doctor calls down, "If you're supposed to be the superior race of the universe, why don't you try climbing after us? Bye bye!"[25] The Daleks generally make up for their lack of mobility with overwhelming firepower. The Fourth Doctor is the name given to the fourth incarnation of the Fictional character known as the Doctor seen on screen in the long-running A joke among Doctor Who fans goes, "Real Daleks don't climb stairs; they level the building. "[26][27] Dalek mobility has improved over time. In their first appearance, The Daleks, they were capable of movement only on the conductive metal floor of their city. In The Dalek Invasion of Earth a Dalek emerges from the waters of the River Thames, indicating that they not only had become freely mobile, but are amphibious to a degree. The Thames ( is a major River flowing through southern England. An amphibious vehicle (or simply amphibian) is a Vehicle or craft, that is a means of transport viable on land as well as on water - just like an [28] Planet of the Daleks showed that they could ascend a vertical shaft by means of an external antigravity mat placed on the floor. Anti-gravity is the idea of creating a place or object that is free from the force of Gravity. Remembrance of the Daleks showed that they can hover using a built-in limited antigravity capability[29] — first implied in earlier serials such as The Chase (1965) and Revelation of the Daleks — but their awkward forms still limit their mobility in tight quarters. The Chase is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in six weekly Despite this, journalists covering the series frequently refer to the Daleks' supposed inability to climb stairs; characters escaping up a flight of stairs in the episode "Dalek" made the same joke, and were shocked when the Dalek began to hover up the stairs. [1] The various appearances of the Daleks in the new series have featured Daleks hovering and flying using an energy thruster, with "The Parting of the Ways" showing them flying through the vacuum of space. " The Parting of the Ways " is an episode in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast [14] In the "Dalek" episode, the Dalek said "Elevate" before elevating, in the same way it would say "Exterminate" before exterminating. [1] Later, in "The Parting of the Ways", the Daleks showed themselves capable of short-range flight through space without the need of their trademark flying saucers.
Costume details
The non-humanoid shape of the Dalek did much to enhance the creatures' sense of menace. A lack of familiar reference points differentiated them from the traditional "bug-eyed monster" of science fiction, which Doctor Who creator Sydney Newman had wanted the show to avoid. Sydney Cecil Newman, OC (April 1 1917 &ndash October 30 1997 was a Canadian film and Television producer, best remembered for the pioneering work [30] The unsettling form of the Daleks, coupled with their alien voices, made many believe that the props were wholly mechanical and operated by remote control. [31]
The Daleks were actually controlled from inside by short operators[32] who had to manipulate their eyestalks, domes and arms, as well as flashing the lights on their heads in sync with the actors supplying their voices. The Dalek cases were built in two pieces; an operator would step into the lower section, and then the top would be secured. The operators looked out between the circular louvres just beneath the dome that were lined with mesh to conceal their faces. [32]
In addition to being hot and cramped, the Dalek casings also muffled external sounds, making it difficult for the operators to hear the director's commands or studio dialogue. The top sections were also too heavy to lift from the inside, which meant that the operators could be trapped inside if the stagehands forgot to release them. John Scott Martin, a Dalek operator from the original series, said that Dalek operation was a challenge: "You had to have about six hands: one to do the eyestalk, one to do the lights, one for the gun, another for the smoke canister underneath, yet another for the sink plunger. John Scott Martin (born 1927 is an English actor who was born in Liverpool If you were related to an octopus then it helped. "[33]
The Dalek cases created for Doctor Who's 21st-century revival do not differ significantly from the original series' Daleks, except for an expanded base, a glowing eyepiece (though in early serials including The Daleks and The Dalek Invasion of Earth, the Daleks were shown with the black and white television equivalent), an all-over metallic brass finish, a housing for the eyestalk gear, and significantly larger ear-bulbs. The new prop made its on-screen debut in the 2005 episode "Dalek".
Movement
Early versions of the Daleks were rolled around on nylon castors or propelled by wheels connected to hand cranks by bicycle chains. The bicycle, cycle, or bike is a pedal-driven, human-powered vehicle with two wheels attached to a frame, one behind Although castors were adequate for the Daleks' debut serial, which was shot entirely at the BBC's Lime Grove Studios, for The Dalek Invasion of Earth, Terry Nation wanted the Daleks to take to the streets of London for location filming. Lime Grove Studios was a Film studio complex built by the Gaumont Film Company in 1915 situated in a street named Lime Grove, in Shepherd's Bush London ( ˈlʌndən is the capital and largest urban area in the United Kingdom. To enable the Daleks to travel smoothly on location, designer Spencer Chapman built the new Dalek shells around miniature tricycles with sturdier wheels; to hide the wheels, the base of the costume was deepened with enlarged fenders. A tricycle (often abbreviated to trike) is a three-wheeled vehicle [34] The bumpy flagstones of Central London caused the Daleks to rattle as they moved and it was not possible to remove this noise from the final soundtrack. A small radar dish was added to the rear of the prop's casing to explain why these Daleks, unlike the ones in their first serial, were not dependent on static electricity drawn from the floors of the Dalek city for their motive power. For the science of static charges see Electrostatics Static electricity refers to the accumulation of excess Electric charge in a [33](These dishes were not, however, seen in any subsequent serial. )
Later versions of the prop had more efficient wheels and were simply propelled by the operators' feet, but they remained so heavy that when going up ramps they often had to be pushed by stagehands out of camera shot. The difficulty of operating all the prop's parts at once contributed to the occasionally jerky movements of the Dalek. [33] The latest model of the costume still has a human operator within, but the movement of the dome and eyestalk is now remotely controlled so that the operator can concentrate on the smooth movement of the Dalek and its arms. [35]
Voices
The staccato delivery, harsh tone and rising inflection of the Dalek voice were initially developed by voice actors Peter Hawkins and David Graham, who would vary the pitch and speed of the lines according to the emotion needed. In Musical notation, the Italian word staccato (literally detached, plural staccatos or staccati) indicates that notes Peter John Hawkins ( 3 April 1924 – 8 July 2006) was an English actor and voice artist whose voice may be more familiar than David Graham is a British Character actor and voice artist whose work may be more familiar than his name Their voices were further processed electronically by Brian Hodgson at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. Although the exact sound-processing devices used have varied, the original 1963 effect used EQ to boost the mid-range of the actor's voice, then subjected it to ring modulation with a 30 Hz sine wave. Equalization (or equalisation, EQ) is the process of changing the frequency envelope of a sound in Audio processing. Ring modulation is a signal-processing effect in electronics related to Amplitude modulation or frequency mixing, performed by multiplying two signals where one The distinctive harsh grating vocal timbre this produced has remained the pattern for all Dalek voices since (with the exception of those in the 1985 serial Revelation of the Daleks, for which director Graeme Harper deliberately used less distortion[36]). Revelation of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast Graeme Harper (born March 11, 1945) is a British Television director.
Besides Hawkins and Graham, notable voice actors for the Daleks have included Roy Skelton, who first voiced the Daleks in the 1967 story Evil of the Daleks and went on to provide voices for five additional Dalek serials[37][38][39][40][41] and for the one-off anniversary special The Five Doctors. Roy Skelton (born 1932 is a British actor and voice artist whose voice may be more familiar than his name The Evil Of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which originally aired The Five Doctors is a special feature-length episode of the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, produced Michael Wisher, the actor who originated the role of Dalek creator Davros in Genesis of the Daleks, provided Dalek voices for that same story, as well as for Frontier in Space, Planet of the Daleks and Death to the Daleks. Michael Wisher (1935–1995 was a British actor He is probably best remembered for having played Davros, the wheelchair-bound scientific mastermind and Davros is a character from the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. Genesis of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was originally broadcast Frontier in Space is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in Planet of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast Death to the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast Other Dalek voice actors include Royce Mills (three stories[42][40][41]), Brian Miller (two stories[42][41]) and Oliver Gilbert and Peter Messaline (one story[43]). Royce Mills (born 12 May, 1942 in Tetbury, Gloucestershire) is an English television stage and film actor Brian Miller is a British actor He appeared in the Doctor Who serial Snakedance and provided Dalek voices in John Leeson, who performed the voice of K-9 in several Doctor Who stories, and Davros actors Terry Molloy and David Gooderson also contributed supporting voices for various Dalek serials[41][39]. John Leeson (born March 1943 in Leicester, England) is a British Actor who although having had a varied stage and television career spanning K-9, or K9, is the name of several fictional Robotic dogs in the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Doctor Who is a British science fiction television programme produced by the BBC. Davros is a character from the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. Terry Molloy (born 1947 is an English actor known predominantly for his work on radio and television David Gooderson is a British actor who has appeared in several television roles
Since 2005, the Dalek voice in the television series has been provided by Nicholas Briggs, speaking into a microphone connected to a voice modulator. Nicholas Briggs is a British actor and writer predominantly associated with the BBC Science fiction Television series Doctor Who [44] Briggs previously had done Dalek and other alien voices for Big Finish Productions audio plays. Big Finish Productions is a British company that produces books and audio plays (released straight to Compact disc and Radio drama is a form of audio storytelling broadcast on radio. In a 2006 BBC Radio interview, Briggs said that when the BBC asked him to do the voice for the new television series, they instructed him to bring his own analogue ring modulator that he had used in the audio plays; the BBC's sound department had gone digital and could not adequately create the distinctive Dalek sound with their modern equipment. He has used his modulator also for voicing the Cybermen in the 2006 series. The Cybermen are a Fictional race of Cyborgs who are amongst the most persistent enemies of the Doctor in the British Science fiction television
Construction
Manufacturing the props was expensive. In scenes where many Daleks had to appear, some of them would be represented by wooden replicas (Destiny of the Daleks[39]) or, in the early black and white episodes, life-size photographic enlargements (The Dalek Invasion of Earth[45][10] and The Power of the Daleks[46][47]). Destiny of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast The Dalek Invasion of Earth is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which originally aired The Power of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast In stories involving armies of Daleks, the BBC effects team even turned to using commercially available toy Daleks, manufactured by Louis Marx & Co. Louis Marx and Company was an American Toy manufacturer from 1919 to 1978 A typical example of such use can be observed in Planet of the Daleks. [23] Judicious editing techniques also made it look like there were more Dalek props than were actually available, and continue to be used to the present day, such as using split screen in "The Parting of the Ways". [14]
Four fully functioning props were commissioned for the first serial "The Daleks" in 1963, and were constructed from BBC plans by Shawcraft Models;[48] these became known in fan circles as "Mk I Daleks". Shawcraft were also commissioned to construct approximately twenty Daleks for the two Dalek movies in 1965 and 1966 (see below). Some of these props from the movies filtered back to the BBC and were seen in the televised serials, notably in The Chase, which was aired before the first movie's debut. [49] The remaining props not bought by the BBC were either donated to charity or given away as prizes in competitions. [50]
The BBC's own Dalek props were reused many times, with components of the original Shawcraft "Mk I Daleks" surviving right through to the Daleks' final appearance in the classic series. [51] However, years of storage and repainting took their toll. By the time of the Sixth Doctor's Revelation of the Daleks, new props were being manufactured out of fibreglass, and were lighter and more affordable to construct than their predecessors. The Sixth Doctor is the name given to the sixth incarnation of the Fictional character known as the Doctor, seen on screen in the long-running Fiberglass (also called fibreglass and glass fibre see Spelling differences) is material made from extremely fine Fibers of Glass. [52] These Daleks were slightly bulkier in appearance around the mid-shoulder section, and also had a slightly redesigned base which was more vertical at the back. Minor changes were made to the design due to these new methods of construction, including alterations to the lower skirting as well as the mid-shoulder section incorporating the arm boxes, which were now one single unit, with the vertical bands encircling the casing also included in the fibreglass mould. [52] These were repainted in grey for the Seventh Doctor serial Remembrance of the Daleks and designated as "Renegade Daleks"; another redesign, painted in white and gold, became the "Imperial Dalek" faction. The Seventh Doctor is a Fictional character, the seventh incarnation of the Doctor seen on screen in the long-running BBC television Since their first appearance in 1963 there have been several variant models of the Daleks, a fictional alien race in the long-running BBC Since their first appearance in 1963 there have been several variant models of the Daleks, a fictional alien race in the long-running BBC [53]
History
Conceptual history
Wishing to create an alien creature that did not look like a "man in a suit", Terry Nation stated in his script for the first Dalek serial that the Dalek should have no legs. [54] He was also inspired by a performance by the Georgian State Ballet, in which dancers in long skirts appeared to glide across the stage. [54] For many of the shows, the Daleks were "played" by retired ballet dancers wearing black socks while sitting inside the Dalek. [31] Raymond Cusick became designer of the Daleks when Ridley Scott, then a designer for the BBC, proved unavailable after having been assigned to their debut serial. Sir Ridley Scott (born November 30 1937 in South Shields, Tyne and Wear) is a British Academy Award Nominated and Golden Globe Emmy Award and BAFTA Award winning [55] An account in Jeremy Bentham's Doctor Who — The Early Years (1986) says that after Nation wrote the script, Cusick was given only an hour to come up with the design for the Daleks, and was inspired in his initial sketches by a pepper shaker on a table. [56] However, Cusick himself states that he based it on a man seated in a chair, and only used the pepper shaker to demonstrate how it might move. [57]
In 1964, Nation told a Daily Mirror reporter that the name came from a volume of a dictionary or encyclopedia, the spine of which read "Dal - Lek". The Daily Mirror, often referred to simply as The Mirror, is a British Tabloid daily Newspaper founded in 1903 [58] He later admitted that he had made this up as a reply to a question by a journalist and that anyone who checked out his story would have found him out. [58] The name had in reality simply rolled off his typewriter. [59] Later, Nation was pleasantly surprised to discover that in Serbo-Croatian the word "dalek" means "far", or "distant". The Serbo-Croatian language or Croato-Serbian language (cрпскохрватски језик srpskohrvatski jezik) is a South Slavic Diasystem [60] Other Slavonic languages have similar words for "far", such as the Russian далеко (daleko), or the Czech "Dalekohledy" which means "distant viewing" (i. The Slavic languages (also called Slavonic languages) a group of closely related Languages of the Slavic peoples and a subgroup of Indo-European languages e. telescopes and binoculars). Incidentally, the similar words "dålig" in Swedish and "dårlig" in Norwegian and Danish mean "bad".
Nation grew up during World War II, and remembered the fear caused by German bombings. World War II, or the Second World War, (often abbreviated WWII) was a global military conflict which involved a majority of the world's nations, including He consciously based the Daleks on the Nazis, conceiving the species as faceless, authoritarian figures dedicated to conquest and complete conformity. Nazism, which was a short name for National Socialism (Nationalsozialismus refers primarily to the Ideology and practices of the National Socialist German [61] The allusion is most obvious in the Dalek stories penned by Nation, in particular The Dalek Invasion of Earth (1964) and Genesis of the Daleks (1975). Genesis of the Daleks is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was originally broadcast [62][63][64]
Prior to writing the first Dalek serial, Nation was chief scriptwriter for comedian Tony Hancock. Anthony John "Tony" Hancock (born 12 May 1924 &ndash 24 June 1968) was a popular British Actor and The two fell out and Nation either resigned or was fired. [54][58][65] When Hancock left the BBC, he worked on several series proposals, one of which was called From Plip to Plop, a comedic history of the world which would have ended with a nuclear apocalypse, the survivors being reduced to living in dustbin-like robot casings and eating radiation to stay alive. According to biographer Cliff Goodwin, when Hancock saw the Daleks he allegedly shouted at the screen, "That bloody Nation — he's stolen my robots!"[66]
The first Dalek serial is called, variously, The Survivors (the pre-production title), The Mutants (its official title at the time of production and broadcast, later taken by a second, unrelated Doctor Who story), Beyond the Sun, The Dead Planet, or simply The Daleks. The Mutants is a serial in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in six weekly (The naming of early Doctor Who stories is complex and sometimes controversial. Some fans of the BBC television series Doctor Who disagree about the titles of some episodes. )[67]
The instant appeal of the Daleks caught the BBC off guard,[58] and transformed Doctor Who from a Saturday tea-time children's educational programme to a must-watch national phenomenon. Children were alternately frightened and fascinated by the alien look of the monsters, and the Doctor Who production office was inundated by letters and calls asking about the creatures. Newspaper articles focused attention on the series and the Daleks, further enhancing their popularity. [31]
Nation jointly owned the intellectual property rights to the Daleks with the BBC, and the money-making concept proved nearly impossible to sell to anyone else; he was dependent on the BBC wanting to produce stories featuring the creatures. [68] Despite fans' adoration, the Daleks were clearly associated with Doctor Who and several attempts to market the Daleks outside of the series were unsuccessful. [69][70] Since Nation's death in 1997, his share of the rights now belong to his estate and are administered by his former agent, Tim Hancock. [71]
Early plans for what eventually became the 1996 Doctor Who television movie included radically redesigned Daleks whose cases unfolded like spiders' legs. [72] The concept for these "Spider Daleks" was abandoned, but picked up again in several Doctor Who spin-offs. Since their first appearance in 1963 there have been several variant models of the Daleks, a fictional alien race in the long-running BBC Doctor Who spin-offs refers to material created outside of but related to the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor
When the new series was announced, many fans hoped the Daleks would return once more to the programme. [73][74] After much negotiation between the BBC and the Nation estate (which at one point appeared to break down completely), an agreement was reached. According to media reports, the initial disagreement was due to the Nation estate demanding levels of creative control over the Daleks' appearances and scripts that were unacceptable to the BBC. [75] Talks between Tim Hancock and the BBC progressed more productively than had been expected, and in August 2004 an agreement was reached for the Daleks' appearance in the 2005 series. [71]
History within the show
Dalek in-universe history has seen many retroactive changes, which have caused continuity problems. The Daleks (ˈdɑːlɛks "DAH-lecks" are a Fictional extraterrestrial race of Mutants from the British science fiction Davros is a character from the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. Retroactive continuity is the deliberate changing of previously established facts in a work of serial fiction In Fiction, continuity (also called time-scheme) is consistency of the characteristics of persons plot, objects places and events seen by the reader or [76] When the Daleks first appeared in The Daleks, they were presented as the descendants of the Dals, mutated after a brief nuclear war between the Dal and Thal races. The Thals are a fictional race of humanoid aliens from the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, originating on the [77] However, in 1975, Terry Nation revised the Daleks' origins in Genesis of the Daleks, where the Dals were now called Kaleds (of which Daleks is an anagram), and the Dalek design was attributed to one man, the crippled Kaled chief scientist and evil genius, Davros. The Kaleds (an anagram of Daleks) also known as Dals, are a fictional race of humanoid extraterrestrials from the British Science An anagram ( Greek anagramma 'letters written anew' passive participle of ana- 'again' + gramma 'letter' is a type of Word play Davros is a character from the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who.

Instead of a short nuclear exchange, the Kaled-Thal war was portrayed as a thousand-year-long war of attrition, fought with nuclear, biological and chemical weapons causing widespread mutations among the Kaled race.

A tank is a tracked, Armoured fighting vehicle designed for Front-line combat which combines Operational mobility and tactical
Genesis of the Daleks marked a new era for the depiction of the species, with most of their previous history either forgotten or barely referred to again. [78] Future stories in the original Doctor Who series, which followed a rough story arc,[79] would also focus more on Davros, much to the dissatisfaction of some fans who felt that the Daleks should take centre stage,[59] rather than merely becoming minions of their creator. A story arc is an extended or continuing storyline in episodic storytelling media such as Television, Comic books Comic strips Davros made his last televised appearance in Remembrance of the Daleks. This serial also marked the last on-screen appearance of the Daleks until 2005, save for charity specials like Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death and the use of Dalek voices in the 1996 television movie. Doctor Who and the Curse of Fatal Death is a four-episode special of Doctor Who made for the Red Nose Day charity
A single Dalek appeared in "Dalek", written by Robert Shearman, which was broadcast on BBC One on 30 April 2005. Robert Shearman (also credited as Rob Shearman; born February 10 1970 near London, England) is currently Events 313 - Roman emperor Licinius unifies the entire Eastern Roman Empire under his rule Year 2005 ( MMV) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link displays full calendar of the Gregorian calendar. This Dalek appeared to be the sole Dalek survivor of a Time War that had destroyed both the Daleks and the Time Lords. The Time War is an event referred to on several occasions in the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who, beginning [1]
However, wherever the Doctor travels during this series, he hears the phrase Bad Wolf repeated as far back as 1869, to a Welsh name for a nuclear plant built on this same time rift, to a future reality television company. [80] The Daleks had been controlling humanity for at least 190 years, using a corporation called the Bad Wolf, and a space broadcasting tower. [81] Oddly enough, this television studio runs fatal versions of known reality TV shows airing today [82], perhaps a wry comment that such shows are less toward higher human nature and more what Daleks would watch, formerly being human. When the Doctor asks the Dalek Emperor, however, he reveals that Bad Wolf isn't actually the design of the Daleks. [83]
The Dalek Emperor returned at the end of the 2005 series, having rebuilt the Dalek race with human subjects; it saw itself as a god, and the new Daleks were shown worshipping it. Since their first appearance in 1963 there have been several variant models of the Daleks, a fictional alien race in the long-running BBC These Daleks and their fleet were reduced to subatomic particles in "The Parting of the Ways". " The Parting of the Ways " is an episode in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast [14]
The 2006 series finale saw another squad of Dalek survivors from the old Empire, known as the Cult of Skaro, led by a black-enameled Dalek named "Dalek Sec", that had survived the Time War by escaping into the Void between dimensions. The Cult of Skaro was an elite order of Daleks from the television series Doctor Who, and the first individual Daleks whose recurring nature has been explicit "Daleks in Manhattan" is an episode of the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who.

This article is about the organisation within Doctor Who; for the spinoff programme see Torchwood. The Cybermen are a Fictional race of Cyborgs who are amongst the most persistent enemies of the Doctor in the British Science fiction television Eventually, the Tenth Doctor caused both factions to be sucked back into the Void, but the Cult members (Sec, Caan, Jast, and Thay; it is unusual for a Dalek to have a name) survived by "temporal shifting" away. The Tenth Doctor is the name given to the tenth incarnation of the Fictional character known as the Doctor seen on screen in the long-running The two-part story "Daleks in Manhattan"/"Evolution of the Daleks" revealed they had escaped to 1930 New York, setting up base in the Empire State Building. "Daleks in Manhattan" is an episode of the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who. "Evolution of the Daleks" is an episode of the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who. The Empire State Building is a 102-story Art Deco Skyscraper in New York City at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and West 34th Street Experiments led by Sec are attempting to force a Dalek evolution by crossing their DNA with humans, and he is the first of the new "Human Daleks". However the three remaining Daleks rebelled and destroyed him. [8] The Cult also attempted to create a Human/Dalek hybrid (fully human in appearance but with Dalek minds). This attempt failed after the Doctor interfered, and the hybrids were exterminated by Caan after they killed Jast and Thay; Caan escaped via another temporal shift. Caan is believed to be the last remaining Dalek in existence. [15]
On 23 March 2008, the BBC released a series 4 teaser trailer depicting a Dalek. Events 1174 - Jocelin, Abbot of Melrose, is elected Bishop of Glasgow. 2008 ( MMVIII) is the current year in accordance with the Gregorian calendar, a Leap year that started on Tuesday of the Common This was clearly not Caan as the dalek did not have one of the cult of skaro name/ identification tags. [84] A later trailer released on 24 May 2008 (mid season) also showed a number of Daleks, as well as a figure obscured by shadow but with the bottom half of a Dalek casing, causing news sources to speculate that Davros would be reappearing in the series. [85][86]
It has now been confirmed a "Dalek empire" will appear in The Stolen Earth, the first of a two-part story concluding with Journey's End. " Journey's End " is the thirteenth episode of the fourth series of British Science fiction television series Doctor Who first
Dalek culture
Daleks have little to no individual personality,[9] ostensibly no emotions other than hatred and fear,[1] and a strict command structure, conditioned to obey superior orders. [87] Dalek speech is characterised by repeated phrases, and by orders given to themselves and to others. Dalek vocal inflection suggests perpetual anger, sometimes verging on hysteria.
In terms of their behavior, Daleks are extremely aggressive, and seem driven by an instinct to attack. This instinct is so strong that Daleks have been depicted fighting the urge to kill[42][15] or even attacking when unarmed. [88][1] The Fifth Doctor characterises this impulse by saying, "However you respond [to Daleks] is seen as an act of provocation. "[42]
The fundamental feature of Dalek culture and psychology is an unquestioned belief in the superiority of the Dalek race[87] and their default directive is to destroy all non-Dalek lifeforms. [1] Other species are either to be exterminated immediately, or enslaved and then exterminated later once they are no longer necessary. [42] When the "Human" Dalek Sec began to doubt the Dalek race's supremacy and purpose, the other Daleks in the Cult of Skaro no longer thought of him as a Dalek and turned against him. [15]
The Dalek obsession with their own superiority is illustrated by the schism between the Renegade and Imperial Daleks seen in Remembrance of the Daleks: the two factions consider the other to be a perversion despite the relatively minor differences between them. [41] This intolerance of any "contamination" within themselves is also shown in "Dalek",[1] The Evil of the Daleks[87] and in the Big Finish Productions audio play The Mutant Phase. Big Finish Productions is a British company that produces books and audio plays (released straight to Compact disc and Radio drama is a form of audio storytelling broadcast on radio. The Mutant Phase is a Big Finish Productions audio drama based on the long-running British science fiction television series [89] This superiority complex is the basis of Dalek ruthlessness and lack of compassion. [87][1] It is nearly impossible to negotiate or reason with a Dalek, a single-mindedness that makes them dangerous and not to be underestimated. [1]
Dalek society is depicted as one of extreme scientific and technological advancement; the Third Doctor states that "it was their inventive genius that made them one of the greatest powers in the universe. "[88] However, their reliance on logic and machinery is also a weakness that they recognise;[39][41] the Daleks use non-Dalek species as agents to compensate for these shortcomings. Since their first appearance in 1963 there have been several variant models of the Daleks, a fictional alien race in the long-running BBC [87][42][41] It should also be noted that Daleks are as likely to use violent means for problem solving as technological ones, and at times even reject more efficient technological options for their own purposes (e. g. , using slave labour rather than machines for grueling work because of the suffering it causes the slaves). [39]
Daleks have occasionally made alliances with other species, but have no compunction about betraying their allies when they are no longer useful to the Dalek cause. [90]
In "The Parting of the Ways", the Daleks that were resurrected through the manipulation and mutation of human genetic material by the Dalek Emperor were religious fanatics that worshipped their Emperor as their god. The Doctor theorised that these Daleks were also insane due to self-loathing, as they had been created from human genetic material. He also noted that, prior to this encounter, no Dalek had a conception of blasphemy, as they had no religion or tolerance for it. [14] The secret order of Daleks, above and beyond the Emperor, known as "The Cult of Skaro" who were created by the Emperor to imagine new ways of surviving appeared in the "Doomsday" episode (it is unclear if the Emperor Dalek that ordered their creation is the same as appeared in "The Parting of the Ways" or another Emperor Dalek); they included Dalek Jast, Dalek Caan, Dalek Thay, and their leader, the black Dalek, Dalek Sec. The Cult of Skaro was an elite order of Daleks from the television series Doctor Who, and the first individual Daleks whose recurring nature has been explicit The Tenth Doctor noted that these Daleks were unique in their culture, granted the right to bear names and imaginations that set them apart from the other Daleks. [9] These Daleks even express sorrow for the loss of their planet, break their normal obsession with hierarchy and are willing to sacrifice their own sense of "purity" for their kind. [8]
Although the Daleks are well known for their disregard of due process, there have been two enemies that they have taken back to Skaro for a "trial", rather than immediately killed; the first was their creator, Davros, in Revelation of the Daleks,[40] and the second was the renegade Time Lord known as the Master in the 1996 television movie. Due process (more fully due process of law) is the principle that a person has a right to receive notice and be heard in an orderly proceeding in order to protect his or her Davros is a character from the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who. The Time Lords are a fictional race and civilization in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, of which the series' The Master is a recurring character in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who. [91] Neither trial occurred on-screen, so it is not clear what was involved. The reasons for the Master's trial, and why the Doctor would be asked to retrieve the Master's remains, have never been explained on screen; the Doctor Who Annual 2006 implies that the trial may have been due to a treaty signed between the Time Lords and the Daleks. [92] The framing device for the I, Davros audio plays, is a Dalek trial to determine if Davros should be the Daleks' leader once more. I Davros Purity is a Big Finish Productions audio drama based on the long-running British science fiction television series [93]
The spin-off novels contain several tongue-in-cheek mentions of Dalek poetry (and an anecdote about an opera based upon it, which was lost to posterity when the entire cast was exterminated on opening night). Tongue-in-cheek is a term used to refer to humor in which a statement or an entire fictional work is not meant to be taken seriously but its lack of seriousness is subtle Two stanzas are given in the novel The Also People by Ben Aaronovitch. The Also People is an original novel written by Ben Aaronovitch and based on the long-running British science fiction television series [94] In an alternative timeline portrayed in Big Finish Productions audio adventure The Time of the Daleks, the Daleks show a fondness for the works of Shakespeare. Parallel universe or alternative reality is a self-contained separate reality coexisting with one's own Big Finish Productions is a British company that produces books and audio plays (released straight to Compact disc and The Time of the Daleks is a Big Finish Productions audio drama based on the long-running British science fiction television series William Shakespeare ( baptised [95]
Because the Doctor has defeated the Daleks so often, he has become their arch-enemy and they have standing orders to capture or exterminate him on sight. An archenemy, archfoe, archvillain or archnemesis (sometimes spelled arch-enemy, arch-foe, arch-villain or They are occasionally able to identify him despite his regenerations. The Doctor is the central character in the long-running BBC television science-fiction series Doctor Who, and also features in In the comic strips and novels the Daleks know the Doctor as the "Ka Faraq Gatri", the "Bringer of Darkness" or "Destroyer of Worlds" (this was first established in the novelisation of Remembrance of the Daleks by Ben Aaronovitch). Ben Denis Aaronovitch (born 1964 is a London-born British writer who has worked on television series including Doctor Who, Casualty [96] In "The Parting of the Ways", the Doctor says that the Daleks call him "The Oncoming Storm"[14] — this name was used by the Draconians (whose word for it is "Karshtakavaar") to refer to the Doctor in the Virgin New Adventures novel Love and War by Paul Cornell. " The Parting of the Ways " is an episode in the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast The Draconians are a Fictional extraterrestrial race from the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who. Love and War is an original novel written by Paul Cornell and based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Paul Cornell (born July 18 1967) is a British writer best known for his work in television drama as well as Doctor Who fiction [97] Both the Ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler suggest that the Doctor is one of the few beings the Daleks fear: in "Doomsday", for example, the Cult of Skaro sees the problem of five million Cybermen as a matter of pest control, yet visibly recoil at the mere mention of the Doctor's name. " Doomsday " is the thirteenth and final episode in the second series of the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who
The modern Doctor has come to view the Daleks as completely evil and unworthy of trust or compassion. The Seventh Doctor even manipulated them into destroying their home world of Skaro (or at least allowed them to destroy it without hesitating or displaying remorse). Skaro is a fictional planet from the British Science fiction television series Doctor Who created by the writer Terry Nation [41] This contrasts with some of the Doctor's earlier dealings with the Daleks: the Second Doctor attempted to instil a "human factor" in Daleks in The Evil of the Daleks[87] and the Fourth Doctor hesitated when presented with the opportunity to destroy the Daleks at the point of their creation in Genesis of the Daleks. [38] The Ninth Doctor made a venomous outburst, due to the destruction of Gallifrey, in "Dalek", leading the lone mutant in that episode to observe that the Doctor "would make a good Dalek", but, when forced to destroy the Dalek race and Earth along with it, noted he'd rather be a "coward, any day. Gallifrey is a fictional planet in the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who and is the homeworld "[1] The Tenth Doctor, whilst initially suspicious and dismissing the Cult of Skaro's genetic dabblings as having achieved nothing, showed compassion to the Dalek/Human hybrid Dalek Sec's plan to create a more benign Dalek race on another planet, and was even willing to transport them there via the TARDIS.

Cushing's Doctor is not an alien, but a human inventor literally named "Doctor Who," who invented his time/space machine (which he directly called "Tardis" instead of "the TARDIS"). The movies used brand new Dalek props, based closely on the original design but with a wider range of colours. Originally, the movie Daleks were supposed to shoot jets of flame, but this was thought to be too graphic for children, so their weapons emitted jets of deadly vapour instead.
Nation also authorised the publication of the comic strip The Daleks in the comic TV Century 21 in 1965.
