Talk:Spider Dalek (TV story)

Proof
Spider Dalek was a story presented through test footage. This video is the story as broadcast on GamesMaster in 1995: (link removed due to a violation of T:VID LINK)


 * Is there any evidence other than a YouTube video? CoT     ?  17:42, April 12, 2017 (UTC)


 * Looking at the various forums discussing the GamesMaster Spider Dalek "story", it would appear that it is just test footage. In my opinion, that makes this no different than a piece of concept art, meaning this is not a story. CoT     ?  17:54, April 12, 2017 (UTC)


 * I suspect Doctor Who: Regeneration probably contains a wealth of info on the development of the Spider Daleks. If anyone has a copy, that could probably be used to source this information in the BTS of the Dalek article, but I don't think forums or YouTube videos can be used to cite things.

 * I do think we should have an article discussing the design and how it inspired further Dalek fiction, but the article is blatantly misguided in its approach. OS25 (Talk) 20:34, April 12, 2017 (UTC)

Here's what I've been able to find out: this was released on DVD, under the title FX test reels. So if we rename it FX test reels (homevid) and rewrite it to merely discuss the footage and how it impacted fans and future secondary media, I think the page can stay. But right now it's rampant with incited speculation. OS25 (Talk) 09:31, April 18, 2017 (UTC)
