A Red Dalek commanded the Daleks' ship during the occupation of Earth in 2150, and was destroyed like the other invaders thanks to the efforts of Tom Campbell and Dr. Who. (NOTVALID: Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.)
Characteristics
The Red Dalek had a casing mostly coloured red, consisting of the dome section, middle section and lower section. As with all Daleks on Earth, it sported a tall black fender at the bottom of the lower section, two cone-shaped luminosity dischargers which stood atop the dome and flashed when the Dalek spoke, coloured red like the Black Dalek, alongside mostly silver accessories; the neck rings which supported its black neck grille, slats across the middle section, middle section bands atop and below the arm sockets, and the eyestalk that connected the eye lens, which appeared as a shining white disc at the face of a black ball, to the dome's pivot, supported by six light blue discs. The left and right arms of the middle section were a gunstick and claw manipulator arm respectively. The sense globes in the Red Dalek's lower section were coloured silver. (NOTVALID: Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.)
Behind the scenes
A Red Dalek identical to this individual was to be one of the Daleks in the rebuilt Dalek City in The Witch's Familiar.
However, while it was present on set during shooting, no footage of this particular Dalek prop made it to the final cut of the episode, with its existence only being revealed through production photographs released on the BBC website.
Had the shot been retained in the finished episode, this would have constituted one of the few instances of acknowledgement of material from the two Peter Cushing Doctor Who movies in the TV series proper, alongside the Fourth Doctor's reminiscing about the resolution of Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. in Genesis of the Daleks.[1]
