Doctor Who's arch enemies the Daleks are coming back to the series after a lengthy dispute between the BBC and the creator's estate was finally settled.

Huzzah!

8. If not like kids' TV puppets

Roy Skelton, the chief voice of the Daleks, was also the voice of Zippy and George in Rainbow, the Teletubbies of their day (were you in Scotland when that was on?)

9. Yeah. Skelton voices General Chedaki in The Android Invasion.

His alien menace is undermined somewhat by the fact that he sounds exactly like Zippy.

3. Orange alert!

MI5 has issued a heightened security alert because of new intelligence indicating a possible Dalek attack. Although the Daleks are capable of traveling throughout time and space, the most likely area of attack is one island nation on the planet Earth. Residents of England are advised to take shelter in buildings with stairs and to carry hats at all times, as they can be used to temporarily disable Dalek visual sensors.

The New Dr. Who filming ran afoul of UK Anti-Terrorism forces.

5. I am the worst Blake's Seven fan in the world

I didn't know Mr. Nation was dead until this article. I am going home to stare at my Avon poster.

7. Glad to hear

the Beeb got things settled with the Nation estate. Have you seen the pics of the new Doctor? I kinda miss the more eccentric clothes.
