The '''Sydney Harbour Bridge''' was an iconic part of the [[Sydney]] skyline. From many vantage points, it could be glimpsed alongside the [[Sydney Opera House]]. | The '''Sydney Harbour Bridge''' was an iconic part of the [[Sydney]] skyline.

In the [[1970s]], the bridge, along with the rest of the [[Australia]]n city, was destroyed by the [[Dalek]]s, who had launched missiles from stolen nuclear [[submarine]]s. The Daleks had irradiated Sydney with the hopes of turning it into a base from which to take over the rest of [[Earth|the world]]. Since they had carried out the attack by sub, they would have to sail into the Harbour to make their landing. This required that they sail their submarine underneath the remains of the bridge — where the [[Third Doctor]] and Lt [[Davis (*Sub Zero)|Davis]] had a trap in store for the Daleks. As the submarine passed underneath, Davis sent down an electrically-charged cable to the deck, which killed all the Daleks at once.

According to another account, Sydney had likely not been destroyed by a [[nuclear weapon]] in the [[1970s]], as it was vibrant in [[2009]]. Then, a news report showed fireworks being launched over a decidedly whole Sydney Harbour Bridge, in celebration of the [[Earth]]'s return to its normal place in space.

:''The bridge was definitively identified in the text of ''*Sub Zero'' as being the "harbour bridge" in Sydney, and, of course, by its distinctive visual style. | :''The bridge was definitively identified in the text of ''*Sub Zero'' as being the "harbour bridge" in Sydney, and, of course, by its distinctive visual style. | ||
