Dalek Seven-2 on Spike Milligan's 'Q6'

[@gjmob]

Since the 70's, whenever I see a dead animal on the road or where ever, I would say "Put it in the Curry" and had no idea where I had got it from and people would look at me strange for saying it. Now I know where I got it from.

[@Ryan.90]

Just got images of you working at the vets. 😅

[@hugohackenbush1554]

"He had a bad day at work." "Why? What happened to him?" "I exterminated him." Spike was an absolute genius.

[@wpeteraces]

I miss Spike so much and perhaps this sketch explains why. There is simply no-one like him today. True comedy genius.

[@ewaf88]

There probably are - but not allowed on mainstream TV or media.

[@Johnny-sj9sj]

Try putting that on today and you will be exterminated by the thought police

[@markjulius1779]

No matter how many times I see this, it still makes me laugh...as a Liverpudlian maybe we should get a Dalek that shrieks 'CALM DOWN...CALM DOWN' LOL

[@prpwnage9296]

No because that is from a Harry Enfield skit so it would have to be on his show.

[@MothraBlues]

Ditto. I so love Spike, & I've loved this sketch since I first saw it on 't Kiwi Telly back in the late 70s (yes, I know it was first aired in the UK in 1975, but NZ was still a coupla years behind the rest of the world back then, as both time & the post traveled MUCH much slower), but can you imagine the reaction this would get nowadays??? It probably wouldn't even get past the Gatekeepers of Pubic (stet) Decency @ the painfully 'Woke' BBC. Yes kids, we WERE once allowed to poke a bit of fun at each other without immediately getting labelled as racist cnnts (it took ooh, at LEAST a week..! ;-) Cheerz!).

[@nicholasdickens2801]

On Talking Pictures on their nostalgia show Sun 25 Sept at 5pm there’s a show with the Daleks and Terry Nation in it.

[@steeveedee8478]

This sketch is often cited for racism but peopel fail to undrestand Spike's mentality. He was born and grew up in India and this sketch is a parady of racism. That was back in the day before the thought police and the 'woke' & 'shrill' communitys started dictating how we had to think about everything. Spike loved everyone and called out hypocrasy and oppression through comedy. But the 'wokes' will never understand that...

[@Lumibear.]

‘The wokes’ who complain about such things are mostly knee-jerk white lefty youth trying to adult, their breadth of understanding and depth of experience is just too small to make such judgements, they don’t understand context because they don’t have any frames of reference yet, in other words they judge every book by its cover. I like to direct them to look at That Was The Week That Was and the Mississippi Number, the historical research required to work out why nobody in the audience is screaming in horror must be quite mind-expanding for them.

[@stevezpj]

The League Of Gentlemen also causes freakouts when they see Papa Lazarou - just look at the comments on this where people don't get the Goodies article io9.gizmodo.com/this-comedy-sketch-once-killed-a-man-with-laughter-do-5562311

[@lordferbus2970]

Also it ain't racist since it is a joke

[@Lumibear.]

Mukatsuku ikr, they did an entire show in blackface lampooning the South African apartheid system from the POV of black people, it was so insulting to those in charge over there that they were forced to tone it down for fear of an international incident, yet there is no effing way any woke youth could watch any of that without assuming racism by The Goodies I’m certain.

[@MothraBlues]

Damn straight. It seems to me, to start to become fully 'Woke', one must first have at least half one's brain removed (especially the parts that control critical thinking), and then have one's ENTIRE sense o' humour extracted slowly & painfully via one's back passage*. (*Arseholes, to those not fluent in Mealy-mouth - aka 'Whitehousese' in the UK, I believe?). Long Live Spike**!!! (**Say whut - he's dead?.Oh well - puttim in the curry, then...) :-D

Here is a challenge for 63.88, what happened to the young dalek, where did it come from, did it ever get used again ?

[@Dalek6388]

I'm afraid we don't know that one! It was either junked or kept by one of the effects team maybe?

[@andykey78]

I've come here from the most recent 63.88 video. The child Dalek looks a lot like the large toys being given away by Terry Nation a few years earlier...🤔

My favourite indian dish is a Chicken Shashlik (Chicken baked in a tomato yoghurt). This is truly delicious with a mushroom Pilau (I am happy to share my recipe). So in all fairness , 'Dalek' would not look out of place on an Indian restaurant menu... perhaps it would be a delicious although quite sour dip. Now I have talked myself hungry.... again .

Snowflakes: this is NOT a RACIST anti-Dalek sketch ! Spike grew up among Daleks, and he was deeply loved by members of the Dalek Community. What Spike is doing _here_ is sending up the absurdity of Anti-Dalekism - something which was especially rampant in the early Seventies.

I've always been curious about the small dalek. I assume it was a pre-existing prop and not made specially for this sketch. I just wonder where it came from originally.

A bit of trivia... this dalek was in Genesis, and this was the only other TV appearance of the dalek, according to the owner. The dalek now resides in Merlins in Coventry.

[@Dalek6388]

Hi Stephen. I’m afraid that’s not actually true. The sections of this Dalek were in constant use from Invasion of the Daleks onwards and throughout the 60s. This is the final appearance of that skirt section but the upper section continued to be used until Remembrance of the Daleks. Both halves now reside in separate private collections.

[@Stephen_The_Waxing_Lyricist]

@@Dalek6388 I mean, this particular dalek. Not the style, the actual dalek. This is according to the owner of the dalek, who runs Merlins. Apparently the BBC have asked for it back, but it isn't for sale.

[@Dalek6388]

I meant this actual Dalek. Unfortunately the owner of the one in Merlins is mistaken. It may not be his fault of course. He may have been given the information by whomever he got the Dalek from. If you look over at out main website (dalek6388.co.uk) you can see it’s history. The top half is that of Dalek 7 and the bottom is Dalek 2.

[@Stephen_The_Waxing_Lyricist]

@@Dalek6388 I'm only going by what he was saying. From the way he spoke, it sounded like Spike had approached him. Well, whatever the case, there is a dalek in Coventry that you don't have to pay an entrance fee to see. And if you decide to visit, you can also see a couple of the locations from the Shakespeare Code episode. One is the registrar's office, and the other is a former hospital. I was unfortunately out of the city when they were filming, as it would have been nice to have seen my cousin who works on DW. But then again, I suspect she wouldn't have been able to get me on set, because of Spoilers, Sweetie!
