Trivia
====================================
Written by former Doctor Who script editor David Whitaker, The Evil of the Daleks was initially intended to be the last Dalek story on Doctor Who. Writer Terry Nation, the creator of the Daleks, was busily trying to sell the Daleks to American television at the time and it was intended to give them a big send off from the series. Of course, despite the Doctor's pronouncement, this was not to be his last encounter with these most famous of his adversaries. In addition, despite the intention to "kill off" the Daleks, Lloyd was told, at the last moment before filming the final scene, not to. He did this inserting a light globe inside the Emperor Dalek. This glowed as the Emperor was destroyed, suggesting that something within remained alive.
The Evil of the Daleks was wiped from the BBC's archives in the early 1970s. Only a telerecording of episode 2 remains, which was returned to the archive in May 1987 after being found at a car boot sale a few years earlier. A copy of the soundtrack was released in 1992. A second version with alternative narration was released in 2003. A home movie of the filming of the Dalek battle sequence exists and is included on the DVD of The Tomb of the Cybermen.
The Model shoot for the final battle scene is included in the Patrick Troughton Lost in Time DVD, as "The Last Dalek". Some Louis Marx 'tricky action' toy Daleks are used in model work for the scenes of the destruction of the Dalek city.
The first individual visual effects designer credits ever given on the series appears, for Michealjohn Harris and Peter Day. Previously, visual effects had been handled by the series' scenic designers rather than by the BBC's Visual Effects Department, although the Department as a whole did receive a credit on the first story, An Unearthly Child.
In 1993 readers of DreamWatch Bulletin voted The Evil of the Daleks as the best ever Doctor Who story in a special poll for the series' thirtieth anniversary.
The Daleks also use mirrors as a method of time travel in the audio play, The Time of the Daleks, as does Donna Noble and UNIT in the revival episode, Turn Left.
The Daleks try a similar plan to create human/Dalek hybrids in the revival series episodes, Daleks in Manhattan & Evolution of the Daleks.
