Dr. Who (Dr. Who and the Daleks)


 * For other uses, see Dr. Who.

Dr Who was a rather eccentric Human scientist, living in a cottage in England with his grand-daughters Susan and Barbara. He also had a niece named Louise. Dr. Who had invented time travel in the form of Tardis, a machine, the exterior of which looked just like a police box.

While Ian was visiting his house he, Susan and Barbara went to have a look at Tardis. A lever was accidentally pressed and Dr. Who and his friends and family were transported to Skaro.

Trying to return Tardis home, Dr. Who opened the doors to find a Roman legion marching towards the ship. (Film: Dr. Who and the Daleks)

Tardis subsequently materialised on Oldark Moor, where Dr. Who and his companions encountered Count Tarkin. (ST: The House on Oldark Moor)

Subsequently, joined by Louise, they fought Daleks who had invaded Earth in the year 2150. (Film: Daleks - Invasion Earth 2150 AD)


 * It is not known what happened after the end of this adventure. A third film, based upon the televised serial The Chase'', was planned but never made. Additionally, Stanmark Producitons Limited obtained a license to make a series of 52 half-hour radio dramas based upon the character.  Advertisements were published, but no episode was ever known to have been completed.

Behind the Scenes

 * Unlike the Doctor of the television series who, in common tradition, is never identified by the name "Doctor Who", the Cushing version is explicitly referenced by the name; the character's first name in this context is never revealed.
