First Appearance of the Daleks

On this day in 1963 the Daleks made their first appearance on Doctor in The Dead Planet the first episode in the second serial. We only saw a quick glimpse of their plunger which for this scene was being held by Assistant Floor Manager Michael Ferguson. Barbara Wright(Jacqueline Hill) was the first person from planet Earth to see what were to become the Doctors most deadly enemy.


Matt Smith was to recreate the moment many years later in Asylum of the Daleks, which saw the return of several old versions of the Daleks.
