In the revived series, some Daleks (such as the Cult of Skaro) have used a built-in mechanism -- possibly a vortex manipulator -- for time travel. Where Daleks have used ships for time travel, the ships have been their normal spaceships. In the classic series, the only actual Dalek time machine shown was in ''The Chase'' (1965), and its controls looked nothing like those of the Silence ship. However, the hemispherical "connection point" the Silence ship tried to make people touch in ''The Lodger '''''does''' look very similar to controls the Daleks use, designed to fit their sucker arms. We know the Silence use technologies developed by other races, so it's not impossible that they got those controls from the Daleks. We also know the Doctor sought out a dying Dalek in order to get information about the Silence, so the two races must have been in some kind of contact. What we don't know is what kind of contact. If the Silence manipulated (or tried to manipulate) the Daleks in the way they've manipulated humans, for example, and the Daleks found out about it, the Daleks would not be at all pleased. --[[Special:Contributions/89.240.253.115|89.240.253.115]] 19:26, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

We've seen other TARDISes than those in ''The Chase''. In ''Rememberance of the Daleks'', that creepy little girl had some kind of Dalek time travel sphere that Ace's boyfriend from that episode stole, and in ''Day of the Daleks'', the human guerillas made a time machine based on stolen Dalek plans. Anyway, despite any similarities between the designs, I doubt that the Silence used Dalek technology for their time ships. If for no other reason, I can't see the Silence manipulating the Daleks as easily as they did the humans. It wouldn't exactly take mass-hypnosis to cause the Daleks to shoot any Silence they see on sight.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] <sup>[[User talk:Icecreamdif|talk to me]]</sup> 03:26, December 20, 2011 (UTC)
