The dad, who is also Peter Cushing, then decides to show Ian his new invention, which is a literal Tardis, which is like a police themed phone box that is bigger on the inside than on the outside and also travels through time.

The smallest daughter helpfully explains that this is "science" and not magic. Then Ian's girlfriend, one of the older daughters wanders in and kisses him, knocking him over so that he knocks a level and teleports the Tardis to a swamp planet somewhere.

EX-TIME-ENATE!

That beehive is Marge Simpson-esque

#Monsterdon

"He wouldn't understand."

He's stupid.

#Monsterdon

"Anyone can understand science if they only put their minds to it!"

Yes, yes!

It might be hard for younger folk, and Americans especially, to understand how little prestige television had in 1960s Britain—doing a film must have felt, for the writers and producer[s], like they were really moving up in the world, not like The Stage of course, but still.

#monsterdon
#DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

I know Doctor Who openings are always a little weird, but this is just out of tune. #Monsterdon

BOOKS?!!

They're reading books?!

#Monsterdon

AARU, isn't that the stereotypical Nixon noise from Futurama? #Monsterdon

oooo "Terry Nation"

Brit TV fans will know his legacy, he made Blakes 7 among other things

#Monsterdon

@strangefour #monsterdon #WrongDaleks

I believe large quantities of alcohol had something to do with it.

@patioboater @Terencio

Though it would make a good #Monsterdon episode.

@diazona All British cinema can be traced back to the Asphyx. if you cross your eyes and ignore the facts.
#Monsterdon #TheFleshandTheFiends

@strangefour #monsterdon #WrongDaleks

those interlocutors have never listened to James Brown.

Where is the soul? Can it be measured and dissected?
#Monsterdon #TheFleshandTheFiends

I just noticed something:
- Quatermass was broadcast by the BBC in 1953 and adapted to the big screen by Hammer Film Productions in 1955, with a sequel two years later.
- Doctor Who was broadcast by the BBC in 1963 and adapted to the big screen by Amicus Productions in 1965, with a sequel the next year.

@paco - Susan's Crusade will liberate the Universe of the Thinking Machines

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

Big thanks to @Taweret for tonight's experience! We learned that some things are best left in black and white, so the money for colo(u)r can be spent on making a better things.

No smoking. No coffee. One non-human hand (foot?) (cephalopod limb?) protruding from under a shower curtain. Twinks from Planet X. Peter Cushing's contractual obligation? Far too much Dalek dialog ... but I'm beating a dead squid.

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoDaleks1965

I can't say that I'm satisfied with this alternate timeline Doctor, but at least my vision processor has to regenerate depleted photochems for the next three hours, from all the oversaturated colors. 80% of the effects budget was just paint and color gels. #Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

"The Academy of Dr Knox" sounds like the kinda place you go to learn how to do Real Estate.

#monsterdon #WrongDaleks

Anyway, that's another movie launched into space, good job team, and thanks to @Taweret as always

#monsterdon #WeHaveDrWhoAtHome

@overholt and the woman Daleks wear less

#Monsterdon #DS9TrialsAndTribblations

@alicedotjpog the monsterdon movie tonight was an ancient dr who absolutely STOKED with critical lore elements

#monsterdon #drwho

@Terencio oh no!

#monsterdon

@funbreaker Yea. But it has nothing on last weeks "4D Man"

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks1966 welp, that ended

There was no depth at all in the Dalek's security and it was their undoing.

Well that and being barely capable of even physically navigating

Right then. Back home we go. At some point in time.

THE END

Ironically the Doctor himself didn't even meaningfully contribute to the plot at all after building the TARDIS. The movie should've been called "Ian and the Fabulous Thals featuring The Daleks"

Anyways another #Monsterdon EX TER MIN ATE ED. Thanks @Taweret even Imitation Doctor is fun to watch!

Goodnight my sweet Daleks
#monsterdon

Thank god that's over.

Thanks @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla for the bingo, @JoeWynne for trivia, @ryan for the stream, and everyone for suffering along every time they called Peter Cushing "Dr. Who."

Stay tuned for MORE CUSHING on https://miru.miyaku.media

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

MIRU . MIYAKU . MEDIA for the aftershow!!!!

okay, considering my first experience with Doctor Who was Tom Baker era, and that i have seen some truly awful DW, and that honestly i will watch the 1996 special at the drop of a hat, honestly that wasn't as bad as i thought it might be. silly? of course. made on like 2 british pounds and a length of rope? obviously. but actually bad? kinda not. maybe i'm too inured against bad Doctor Who.

#monsterdon

It didn't work anyway #monsterdon

An AARU FING KIDDING ME PRODUCTION.

#Monsterdon

and they fucked off into the space-time continuum, good night!

I think I saw probably just about exactly the right amount of that movie

#Monsterdon

I had fun in spite of it all, but that was one of the more brutal slogs in recent memory.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon
oh so this is where the doctor got the floor capes that he uses to kill the dalek in season 9

Thanks everyone for suffering through this - I have seen it too many times and feel nothing but disdain, but I hope you enjoyed it - the monster is the film itself!

Thanks @Taweret for hosting! #Monsterdon

oh, this is that comedy routine from the start again.

that's an ending.

let's collectively forget this one, #monsterdon

A planet of 50 foot tall Romans? They were clearly stepping over the Tardis.
Wait that ended mid sentence? Weird.
#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

Now that you taught the Thals to fight you might want to lock the door of the TARDIS

Y'know, trust but verify

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

"I'm gonna sell mine on eBay!"

#monsterdon

Take these shower curtains in remembrance of us!

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoDaleks1965

IN RE-TRO-SPECT WE SHOULD NOT HAVE FAL-LEN FOR THE LOOK BE-HIND YOU TRICK

#Monsterdon

What did the Doctor actually do? Gets them in mortal danger by accident, then discovers mirrors for a useless distraction? #monsterdon

An added bonus - toilet plungers for everyone!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon bingo!!

ALL MY DALEKS, DEAD

#monsterdon

Ian has FANGS

#Monsterdon

And so they fucked off into time and space...?

Thanks @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Daleks are clearly stupider even than Thals.

"Doctor, we are surrounded by film!" #monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

Well, like last week's movie...that was coherent, competent and quite fun!

#Monsterdon

The Daleks main weaknesses: Walls and friendly fire. #Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

Calm down Ian....this is exactly what they say about over emotional men...

That's the ending?

Not even the Sea?

Do they ever get back
(Actually they do, for the sequel)

#Monsterdon

Dalek base: my decor goals for my home
TARDIS interior: my actual home

#Monsterdon

Okay rope sling into elevator shaft is 10 out of 10 the best way I've seen a Dalek destroyed in this movie so far 😂
#Monsterdon #DrWho #DrWhoAndTheDaleks1965

ICE creeps watching the Daleks and taking notes.

#Monsterdon

once again why is the TARDIS set so shit

#monsterdon

It feels surreal that the Daleks' gas guns are so wildly destructive of them/electrical equipment, but only effective as stun weapons on humans/thals

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

Spray it, don’t just say it

#monsterdon #DrWhoandTheDaleks

Counting the mist-zap as 2+ deaths

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

Butlerian Jihad go!

#Monsterdon

lol, are they going to leave the planet completely dead? Have the Brits done it again?

#Monsterdon

oh it's the 'ol ventilation shaft trick!

#monsterdon

@moira y'know a Dalek looks about the right size to hold a keg

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

why are we crouching while we run down the hallway? does the crouching help?

#monsterdon

68 daleks of beer on the wall
68 daleks of beer
take one down
pass it around
67 dalek bottles of beer on the wall

#monsterdon #WeHaveDrWhoAtHome

Led Zepplin shot the cover to Houses of the Holy on this set.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

It can count down from 100.. maybe it's smarter than ChatGPT after all.

While puny human group A is trying to destroy the pipes, the Doctor and most of the Thals are flashing mirrors at the Dalek city's ring cameras which confuses them and makes them mad, so they open the city mega-gate and tell everyone "do not move you are our prisoners!" and most of the Thals run away, so really this didn't seem like a great plan to me.

#monsterdon

@arrjay

For Great Justice.

#MONSTERDON #DrWhoAndTheDaleks_1965

*cuts rope* "Hey, get me out of here!"

???

#monsterdon

Missed #monsterdon but I did go see "Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie" and if you are Canadian or live in the Toronto area, seeing it is well worth your time.

NO! Switch places with Ian, THEN cut the rope!

#monsterdon

@Taweret it's a good twist on a cliche, and offers free opportunity for escalation of stakes within a single sequence! fully endorsed

#Monsterdon

"Hey! Get me out of here!"

"We can't! You cut the rope too short, you nimrod!"

#monsterdon

@Taweret Ian.

Well, ask a silly question…

#monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

The world is a vampire

#Monsterdon

party peep is being dramatic

#Monsterdon

good job. drag the annoying colonialist along with you.

#monsterdon

Why would you ever trust Ian to catch you?

#monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks1966

fucking off into the chasm in 3... 2...

#monsterdon #WeHaveDrWhoAtHome

So the Daleks are vulnerable to bright blue lights. I'm not sure whether to laugh at them, or say "same"

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

just leave Whiney Thaal to die, he's given up....

#Monsterdon

@JoeWynne only 6% huh? I'm surprised, I thought that was one of the more likely options

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

@diazona @amyfou

Timelord police in action!

#Monsterdon

Once we detonate the neutron bomb, we will celebrate with the neutron dance.

Neutron Dance https://share.google/d09iRAIgcFwaDfOsv

#Monsterdon

he's really starting to like this punching thing

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

climbing was only discovered in Britain in 1957 so that scene was actually really compelling at the time for most intra-national audiences

I'm not even sure what we're doing. the daleks probably explained it and I couldn't understand what they were saying

#monsterdon

The cakes are the solution! wait what?
#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

That matte painting looks like it came from a 80s metal album cover.

#monsterdon

To be fair Barbara is carrying like two stone of beehive

#Monsterdon

These Daleks' dialogue is so off it's maddening. Like, "DETONATE" was right there, but no, you wrote "EXPLODE" >:( #monsterdon

lol, the Thaals really are quite vain...

No houses, but makeup, plenty of time for that.

#Monsterdon

He needed a slap though

#Monsterdon

We just have to climb this Tor book cover

#Monsterdon

I can’t help but laugh every time the Daleks speak. It’s just so funny!

When the robot uprising happens, I won’t be able to stop giggling.

#monsterdon #DrWhoandTheDaleks

uh, who puts their face directly into a mist covered body of water? effing Ian does... 🫩

#Monsterdon
