'''''Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.''''' was the second and final theatrical feature film based on ''[[Doctor Who]]''. It was adapted from the television serial ''[[The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)|The Dalek Invasion of Earth]]''. It stars [[Peter Cushing]] as a human scientist named "[[Dr. Who (Dr. Who and the Daleks)|Dr. Who]]", and also featured [[Roberta Tovey]] reprising her role of [[Susan (Dr. Who and the Daleks)|Susan]]. This was also [[Bernard Cribbins]]' first ''Doctor Who''-related role. Forty-one years later, he would be cast as [[Wilfred Mott]] in the [[BBC Wales]] series.

* Tom's foiling of the "[[smash and grab]]" marks a peculiar instance of [[time travel]] in ''[[Doctor Who]]'' which is at odds with ''most'' accounts in mainstream continuity which establish that generally a time traveller cannot go back and change their own personal [[history]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Father's Day (TV story)|Father's Day]]'', ''[[The Parting of the Ways (TV story)|The Parting of the Ways]]'', ''[[The End of Time (TV story)|The End of Time]]'', ''[[The Time of the Doctor (TV story)|The Time of the Doctor]]'') It is of note that the earlier version of Tom who would have entered TARDIS is completely absent from this new version of the event, his place being taken by the present Tom.

* A third film, based on [[TV]]: ''[[The Chase (TV story)|The Chase]]'' and titled ''Daleks vs. Mechons'', was filmed but subsequently lost in a fire. A trailer was discovered in the basement of a church in northern England in 2009. ''The supposed "trailer" was fan-made, as the graphics were too advanced for circa 1967. Producer Milton Subotsky claimed that a third film was planned based on The Chase, but there is no contemporary evidence to support this. BBC documentation exists which suggests that the arrangement with Subotsky was for two films only, and no negotiations for a third film ever took place.''

No official novelisation of the screenplay was ever published; however, the original teleplay, ''[[The Dalek Invasion of Earth (TV story)|The Dalek Invasion of Earth]]'', was eventually novelised by [[Terrance Dicks]] in [[1977 (releases)|1977]] as ''[[Doctor Who and the Dalek Invasion of Earth (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Dalek Invasion of Earth]]''. It should be noted that this novelization homages the film by depicting its incarnation of the Dalek flying saucer on its cover.
