These included the Sensorites, (TV: The Sensorites [+]Loading...["The Sensorites (TV story)"], PROSE: The Monsters from Earth [+]Loading...["The Monsters from Earth (short story)"]) the Voord, (PROSE: The Fishmen of Kandalinga [+]Loading...["The Fishmen of Kandalinga (short story)"]) the Ethereals in their cloud form (PROSE: The Cloud Exiles [+]Loading...["The Cloud Exiles (short story)"]) and the Verdants. (COMIC: Mission for Duh [+]Loading...["Mission for Duh (comic story)"])
The sound of static power pulses was associated with the Daleks. (COMIC: The Only Good Dalek [+]Loading...["The Only Good Dalek (comic story)"])
During the Dummy Massacre, (PROSE: Dummy Massacre [+]Loading...["Dummy Massacre (short story)"]) when the London Eye was activated by the Nestene Consciousness (TV: Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (TV story)"], PROSE: Operation Mannequin [+]Loading...["Operation Mannequin (short story)"]) at least one person on the Eye found themselves unable to see due to the brightness and unable to talk because of the noise.
