The [[1966]] [[Dalek invasion]] of [[Earth]] was an attraction created by the [[Dalek Dome]], an entertainment company which used the campaigns and horrors carried out by the [[Dalek]]s as inspiration. The fake Daleks involved in the "invasion" believed themselves to be real. [[Time tourist]]s were offered the attraction as an experience.

The [[1966]] [[Dalek invasion]] of [[Earth]] was an attraction created by the [[Dalek Dome]], an entertainment company which used the campaigns and horrors carried out by the [[Dalek]]s as inspiration. The fake Daleks involved in the "invasion" believed themselves to be real. [[Time tourist]]s were offered the attraction as an experience. Versions of the attraction included an invasion by [[Imperial Dalek]]s or an invasion by [[Bronze Dalek]]s. Starting points for the invasion included [[Shea Stadium]] during a concert by [[the Beatles]] or the [[1966 World Cup Final]].

The newly [[Regeneration|regenerated]] [[Fourteenth Doctor]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Power of the Doctor (TV story)|The Power of the Doctor]]'') received a distress signal from the [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] and arrived during the 1966 World Cup Final, searching the crowd for a group of four [[alien]] time tourists. Their encounter was interrupted by the arrival of a [[Dalek flying saucer|flying saucer]] above the Stadium, which unleashed a horde of [[Bronze Dalek]]s, who began their attack by [[Extermination|exterminating]] the players on the field. Across the Earth, Bronze Daleks attacked and exterminated. [[Egypt]] was lit aflame, with the [[Sphinx]] being destroyed. The Doctor believed the invasion to be real. | The newly [[Regeneration|regenerated]] [[Fourteenth Doctor]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Power of the Doctor (TV story)|The Power of the Doctor]]'') received a distress signal from the [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] and arrived during the 1966 World Cup Final, searching the crowd for a group of four [[alien]] time tourists.
