Story notes

• Prior to the sketch were shown clips of both the Robot Yeti from TV: The Web of Fear and a green slime infected Lazar from TV: The Ark in Space.
• Suki was an obvious reference to Doctor Who companion Susan.
• The sketch was an obvious parody of TV: The Daleks.
• The sketch used the original 1963 arrangement of the Doctor Who theme by Ron Grainer and Delia Derbyshire.
• The sketch made reference to the often wonky and wobbly sets of the Classic era of Doctor Who, most notable during the 1960s.
• After the sketch, two children were interviewed by the BBC about Doctor Who, telling they’d often be scared and hide behind the sofa, and were subsequently led by BBC executives to a Blue Peter garden area to get exterminated by the Daleks.
  • Later in The Love Box in Your Living Room, the same Daleks were seen wearing tricorns and exterminating BBC executives.
  • Another scene showed the Daleks exterminating BBC boss "Peter Flinchless".
  • Another scene showed a Dalek about to exterminate Richard Curtis, but suddenly started expressing love for his films, to which Curtis expressed love for the Dalek's "pretty dress".
• At some point in The Love Box in Your Living Room, a clip of the Third Doctor falling out of the the TARDIS from TV: Spearhead from Space was shown, with narrator Harry Enfield saying Doctor Who was on drugs and a voice-over said "Fuck it!".
• The Daleks are played by Sons of Skaro prop makers Ben May and Tom Connor.
