The broadcast of The Evil of the Daleks, part 7, on July 1st brought to a close Doctor Who's

00:07.640 --> 00:13.240
fourth season on television. The production block, however, would continue with The Tomb

00:13.240 --> 00:19.440
of the Cybermen, which would be held over to start season 5. Only episode 2 of the story

00:19.440 --> 00:24.560
exists in the archives, having been famously returned alongside episode 3 of The Faceless

00:24.560 --> 00:31.440
Ones by Gordon Hendry after he bought them from a car boot sale. There also exists a

00:31.440 --> 00:36.960
clip of the toy Daleks used in the serial, which begins with the toy being held, then

00:36.960 --> 00:44.800
released, the end part of which may possibly have featured in episode 7. In addition, there

00:44.800 --> 00:50.920
is footage of the Emperor Dalek and the model filming as taken by Tony Cornell which, whilst

00:50.920 --> 00:56.640
not actual footage from the story, illustrates what would have been seen on screen. The story

00:56.640 --> 01:02.560
was one of Troughton's favourites, and in the 80s he would even bandy about the idea

01:02.560 --> 01:07.880
of it being made into a feature film. Terry Nation's plans for an American Dalek series

01:07.880 --> 01:12.960
were never realised, so The Evil of the Daleks was the last appearance of the Daleks for

01:12.960 --> 01:20.960
over four years, until they finally returned to face John Pertwee's Doctor in the 1972

01:20.960 --> 01:43.480
The Day of the Daleks.
