Working late at night at [[Auderly House]], a government-owned country house about 50 miles from London, [[Reginald Styles|Sir Reginald Styles]], organiser of the [[World Peace Conference|Second World Peace Conference]], narrowly survives an [[assassination]] attempt by a combat-uniformed guerrilla, who afterwards vanishes like a [[ghost]]. UNIT is called in to guarantee the safety of the conference. When the guerrilla subsequently tries again, he is attacked by huge, ape-like creatures called [[Ogron]]s and found unconscious in the grounds by [[Unified Intelligence Taskforce|UNIT]] troops. The [[Third Doctor]] [[deduce]]s from the guerrilla's equipment that he comes from two hundred years in the future, and he recognises a device found on him as a crude time machine.[[File:Dayofthedaleks_title.jpg|left|thumb|The Doctor, Jo, and the Brigadier.]] | |||
While Styles is away, the Doctor and [[Jo Grant|Jo]] keep watch at the house. Three more guerrillas, [[Anat]], [[Boaz]] and [[Shura]], arrive from the future, materialising in a disused canal tunnel nearby. They shoot two UNIT sentries and break into the house. The Doctor overcomes Boaz, then continues tinkering with the captured time transmitter, unaware that the signal it emits is being monitored in the [[22nd century]]. The guerrilla warns the Doctor to switch it off. But in the 22nd century time zone, the [[Dalek]]s order the zone's [[Controller (Day of the Daleks)|Controller]] to exterminate whoever is transmitting the signal. | |||
