Story Notes

 * Several of the Dalek props were purchased by the BBC and appear in DW: The Chase, as it was broadcast before the cinematic release of this film, the Dalek movie props were seen on TV before they were seen in the cinemas.
 * The Daleks were proposed to have flame throwers, however this was vetoed, the reason for the need to have anything is that the negative effect of the Dalek's weapons could not be achieved on film.
