'''''The Dalek Invasion of Earth''''' was the second serial of [[season 2]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]''. It's most notable for featuring the first departure of a [[companion]]. [[Carole Ann Ford]] left, leaving her character, [[Susan Foreman]], to be with a man. Not only did this lead to children and a number of storylines in other media, it also forced the story to end with an especially meaningful speech between the Doctor and his granddaughter. Perhaps the best-remembered of all of [[William Hartnell]]'s speeches, it has often been seen in other ''Doctor Who''-related programmes and was memorably used as the prologue to ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]''.

''Invasion'' obviously featured the return of the [[Dalek]]s, who had proven quite popular when they first appeared in [[season 1]]. [[Terry Nation|Nation]], again, wrote the script, this time bringing the Daleks to [[Earth]]. A number of independently-used publicity shots have survived from this production and famously depict Daleks appearing in exterior shots around famous London landmarks, like [[Big Ben]], the [[Houses of Parliament]] and [[Battersea Power Station]].
