The "Earth-Skaro Timescale" of ''[[Terry Nation's Dalek Annual 1976]]'', while claiming that any corresponding events may be purely coincidental, acknowledges that in [[Skaro-year]] 10,823 ([[1906]]), a [[Dalek]] task force landed on Earth to examine the core of the [[planet]], causing much disturbance to the surface.


[[Helen Sinclair]] once watched a [[film]] about the earthquake starring [[Clark Gable]].  ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Gift (audio story)|The Gift]]'')
