Rising up from the ashes of the devastation caused by the Monstron attack, the all new Dalek City is a little less Butlins Holiday camp in its colour scheme than the old  one...

However, the interiors do still retain their colourful appearance, as this scene aboard a Dalek saucer reveal.

The newly redesigned Daleks. This shot highlights the new dome lights and colour scheme.

The Dalek Space Station hanging above some unknown world. This is where all the trouble with those pesky Mechanoids begins. It’s not nice when the neighbours build something large on your doorstep...

Still showing Richard Jennings’ sometimes extremely literal interpretation of future science, the Dalekaural Station, resembling three brass ear trumpets, is surely a comedy masterpiece.

From near to the story’s conclusion, the Emperor finally learns what a Mechanoid looks like. This makes him about as happy as Terry Nation was when he found out the same thing.

The Mechanoids aboard their giant spherical spaceship. This is never shown in any detail in the original strip. so gave me free reign to create whatever I wanted.

And here are those giant spherical spaceships now. Richard Jennings and Ron Turner clearly took their inspiration here from Buckminster Fuller’s geodesic domes, which also inspired Raymond Cusick when he designed the Mechanoids.

Dalek game shows are amongst the cruellest in the cosmos. In this one, which is called Exterminate Exterminate, a lone Dalek is asked trivia questions by the Emperor whilst being zapped with an enormous laser beam.

“What is the name of this large red robot?”

“Er...”

ZAP!

The Menoid, leader of the Mechanoids. He’s nasty and he’s red. Like a large, sour tomato.

The rebel Dalek is probed for answers to discover the identity of the new enemy that the Daleks are facing...

The Red Dalek finds himself getting redder than even he could have imagined when his saucer comes under attack from the Mechanoids.

Another shot of the Emperor and the new enemy of the Daleks.

The Dalek saucer blasts the Mechanoid ship into fragments.

The videoscope chamber where the Daleks observe Skaro and beyond...

The Dalek saucer comes under attack from two Mechanoid ships. I wonder who will win this little confrontation...

Having blasted his work chum into tiny chunks, the Dalek aboard the space station comes under attack from a hoverbout patrol.

The Emperor and his aides helplessly watch the screens as the Menoid declares war on the Dalek race and trashes a Dalek saucer.

This sort of thing always happens on a Monday, I find...
