Well im Quark16. Recently = I purchased the complete works of oscar wilde, Shakespeare and charles dickens vol 1 and 2. Ill have to look out for vol 3 and 4 etc. Shame i wanted to read an xmas carol. The format of the books are excellent. Ther huge old style libary books with big print and a little velvet bookmark attacked to the spine. Im dissaponited by Davros return. He Got so overshadowed ! The new overshawed davros reminded how good the old Davros was so this page will be a tribute to good old classic davros instead of the quarks. Dont get me wrong I love the Quarks But davros is better. So untill play.com have advaible copies of mel gibsons hamlet and kenneth branagh's hamlet. Goodbye

History
Quarks were originally the robot servants of the Dominators. The Doctor and his companions encountered some of them on Dulkis. (DW: The Dominators). After being reunited with Jamie McCrimmon in Scotland, the Doctor defeated an attempted Quark invasion of Earth. (TVC: Invasion of the Quarks). Shortly afterwards, the Quarks used their Giant Wasps to attack the Doctor and Jamie on the planet Gano. (TVC: The Killer Wasps). On an unnamed jungle world, the Quarks attacked the Doctor and Jamie again, causing his TARDIS to be buried under rubble. (TVC: Jungle of Doom) In 1971, the Quarks caused the Martha series of robots, which were invented by the Doctor to do housework, to turn against humanity as a prelude to their invasion. (TVC: Martha the Mechanical Housemaid) In 2044, the Quarks arrived on the planet Hekton to kill the Doctor, but were defeated by the human colonists. (TVC: The Duellists) In 2053, a Quark pursued the Doctor when he participated in an automobile race on Earth. (TVC: Death Race) The Doctor and Mel also defeated the Quarks and their Giant Wasps. (MA: Millennial Rites)

stuff

 * The Quarks where originally designed by Mervyn Haisman and Henry Lincoln but when the design was changed against their liking the project was handed to Norman Ashby. The copyrights to the Quarks were undecided and so the Quarks never returned to TV but made numerous comic appearences.
 * The Quarks may be at war with the Vespiforms. This is probably a mix-up between the Vespiforms and the Quark's giant wasps. The Killer Wasps was shown in Captain Jack's Monster Files backing this up. (Captain Jack's Monster Files)

Return of the Quarks?

 * The Quarks were set to return to Doctor Who for The Five Doctors but were removed from the script at an early stage and replaced by the Raston Warrior Robot. The Quarks appear on the cover of the Five Doctor's VHS as this was not changed to match the TV swap.
