The DeGaullek

The DeGaullek was a satirical caricature of Charles de Gaulle, drawn to resemble a Dalek, featured in a newspaper cartoon by Illingworth in 1964. The comic featured him rolling into the NATO summit.

William Hartnell showed the cartoon to Verity Lambert, at which they both laughed. (DOCUDRAMA: An Adventure in Space and Time)

Behind the scenes
The newspaper strip depicted is in fact a real cartoon drawn by and published in the Daily Mail on 25 November 1964.

Its appearance in the docudrama slightly conflates with real-world history, however, as the scene in which Hartnell and Lambert see the strip occurs just before the scene with the cast and crew on the set of Marco Polo, suggesting a setting much earlier in the year.
