Story
Destiny of the Daleks (1979)
These Dalek figures represent two used in this story. As part of the 17th season of Doctor Who, the BBC’s Visual Effects Department found a very battered collection of Daleks at their disposal. New and old prop parts were mixed freely. Of the props assembled, the lead Dalek was the only one to retain its dark grey ‘Genesis’ style finish, whereas the others were painted a battleship blue along with mismatched parts picked out in gloss black and silver, although all the Daleks were given new eyestalks. Add to this, by now very ‘worn’ appearance, the props arguably look like the remnants of a Dalek army very much on the back foot in an intergalactic war!
