The Earthling who designed TV's greatest monsters

More than 10m people watched Doctor Who battle the Daleks on TV last summer. Yet if you ask if anyone knows who designed the metal monsters, you'll find that the name has been virtually exterminated in popular culture. They owe their appearance (inset) to a Londoner called Raymond Cusick, who was a designer on Doctor Who in the 1960s (above).

Tight budgets meant the aliens were given plungers instead of the scarier claws that Cusick originally wanted. Incidentally. Cusick was assigned the Dalek job when another BBC designer — a certain Ridley Scott — was too busy to do it. Whatever became of him?
