The title of the story says it all really. After the runaway success of "The Daleks" in season one, the Green Blobs in Bonded Polycarbide Armour are back. It's the future - some point after 2164 - and the story focuses not on the invasion itself (still a little beyond the budget and capability of 1964) but on a world ruled by the Daleks and their robotised slaves ("Robomen"). It was adapted as Daleks – Invasion Earth: 2150 A.D., the sequel to Dr. Who and the Daleks.

  • The title of the story says it all really. After the runaway success of "The Daleks" in season one, the Green Blobs in Bonded Polycarbide Armour are back. It's the future - some point after 2164 - and the story focuses not on the invasion itself (still a little beyond the budget and capability of 1964) but on a world ruled by the Daleks and their robotised slaves ("Robomen"). The Doctor and the others fall in with a group of resistance fighters led by wheelchair-bound Dortmun, and discover that the Daleks are digging a huge mine in Bedfordshire of all places. It turns out that they are planning to plant a bomb in the Earth's core which will hollow out the planet, so they can replace the core with an engine and pilot the planet around like a spaceship. Ian rigs up a barrier in the mineshaft which detonates the bomb prematurely, conveniently destroying the Dalek mothership and most of the Daleks in the process, not to mention creating a new volcano in Bedfordshire. Susan, the Doctor's granddaughter, has meanwhile fallen in love with resistance fighter David Campbell and the Doctor leaves her behind to make a new life with him. It was adapted as Daleks – Invasion Earth: 2150 A.D., the sequel to Dr. Who and the Daleks.
