An untitled skit bookended the first half of the 2024 edition of Doctor Who at the Proms, serving to interrupt the performance and lead into the intermission. It featured a Bronze Dalek, voiced as usual by Nicholas Briggs.
Although a full video cut has yet to be released to the public, an official audio recording was broadcast live on BBC Radio 3. Until such a time as a video release emerges, this audio version is considered the definitive form of the story by this Wiki.
Due to its apparent parodical nature, with the Dalek only asking for the performance to stop "for fifteen minutes" (the length of the intermission) and the conductor (Alastair King playing himself) laughing off its demands, the skit is not considered a valid source by this Wiki.
Synopsis[[edit] | [edit source]]
A Dalek interrupts a concert at the Royal Albert Hall.
Plot[[edit] | [edit source]]
A Dalek interrupts the Doctor Who Prom at the Royal Albert Hall, ordering the audience to be silent before explaining that, as the Doctor is "the enemy of the Daleks", it wishes for the performance to stop. Declaring the musicians to now be "servants of the Daleks", on pain of extermination, the Dalek orders the conductor and the other musicians to step down from the stage. However, the audience are ordered to remain standing and await "further music" rather than go relax. The conductor, however, returns to the microphone and advises the audience not to listen to the Dalek, and to simply take fifteen minutes to themselves outside until the performance resumes.

Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Although this is not apparent in the audio recording, the Dalek used on-stage was a Bronze Dalek.
Continuity[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Less parodical depictions of the Daleks interrupting a Royal Albert Hall concert performance had been the subjects of prior Doctor Who at the Proms minisodes, including TV: The Daleks & Davros [+]Loading...["The Daleks & Davros (TV story)"] in 2008 and TV: Symphony of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Symphony of the Daleks (TV story)"] in 2010. The immediately previous minisode in the 2024 concert, AUDIO: Pantheon of Discord [+]Loading...["Pantheon of Discord (audio story)"], also featured an enemy of the Doctor's disrupting the performance. This spoof Dalek skit is, however, the only one to explicitly identify the concert being disrupted as an in-universe Doctor Who Prom.
