A square plastic garbage bin was taken over by the Nestene Consciousness and used as a way to abduct Mickey Smith. (TV: Rose)

Behind the scenes

  • The garbage bin is an object with an unlikely resonance to Doctor Who imagery due to the frequent observation that the Dalek casing bears an unfortunate resemblance to certain types of rubbish bins and dustbins. This likeness was used as a joke in several licensed Doctor Who spoofs, such as Regeneration of a Dalek.
