'Thrills Galore - Full-size Dalek Playsuit, only 66 shillings and sixpence (nine and six monthly). Excitement all day long as your child plays Dr Who and the Daleks.'
'Don't miss the Fabulous Dalek Badge- only one shilling and threepence at your local Woolworth store.' It is hard to know how we managed to resist such blandishments in those halcyon days of Dr Who fever if. indeed, we did. Cer tainly my own Dalek suit is a bit limp now! But such merchandising marked the heyday of a craze which has now matured into a worldwide cult 25 years on.
That quarter-century, all the Doctors, all his assistants and all the adventures are chronicled here in meticulous detail in what is a bible for the serious fan.
