Behind the scenes

• Darth Vader was played psychically by Minotaur actor Dave Prowse.
• Darth Vader appeared in a Top Gear skit "Master of the Universe" where he was pitted against other opponents including a Dalek, a Cyberman and Colin Baker as the Sixth Doctor to see who the fastest "Master of the Universe" was around the Top Gear track. Vader was seen helping the Cyberman put its helmet on, and he was later exterminated when the Dalek became angry that it couldn't fit in the car.
