   That would have been a cool project.

   As a child I thought Daleks were the best of the Doctor's   
   foes... I used to use the Pawns from my chess set as Daleks   
   and had an army of them moving across the carpet when I was   
   younger. (i.e. the 1970's) Daleks were brilliant!   
      
   But when it came to silly ideas, once I grew up I realised that   
   "Doctor Who" was full of them... Daleks were not even close to   
   the top of THAT list!
