Thread Name: BS: The Daleks are back
Subject: RE: BS: The Daleks are back
I've just come back in to my computer after watching tonight's episode of Dr Who on Oz tv and here you all are talking about him.

The Daleks scared the crap out of me as a kid. I used to get up casually and just leave the room for a bit when they went berserk.   I think it was the combination of their voices and the black-white-black-white negative effect as people were killed.

When I was in a shared house we rented a black & white tv because of Dr Who, and when it started in colour we had to upgrade to a colour tv.

The only other movie character which puts the wind up me is the evil bloke in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, when he laughs that high pitched, insane laugh as he dumps the Toon in the barrel of green gloop. I can't watch that scene either. Thank god for fast forward on video players.
