The Thal Dome was depicted in one episode of the Kaled propaganda television series ''[[Captain Croag and the Highland Rangers]]'' which featured the title character being captured and tortured in the dome. He eventually made his escape using nothing but a length of rusted pipe as a weapon.

As he approached his thirtieth birthday, [[Davros|Tech-Ops Davros]], a member of the Kaled [[Scientific Elite|Scientific Corps]], was sent on a mission to the Thal Dome by the [[Supremo]], the leader of the Kaled people, to destroy a Thal weapons research facility. | As he approached his thirtieth birthday, [[Davros|Tech-Ops Davros]], a member of the Kaled [[Scientific Elite|Scientific Corps]], was sent on a mission to the Thal Dome by the [[Supremo]], the leader of the Kaled people, to destroy a Thal weapons research facility. His team consisted of the mission commander [[Brint|Major Brint]], [[Reston|Tech-Ops Reston]] and five others. However, the mission was compromised by Davros' elder half-sister [[Yarvell]], who was a [[Pacifism|peace activist]] in spite of being a member of the Kaled [[Military Elite|Military Corps]]. She informed her contacts in the peace movement, who in turn warned the Thals of the attack. Although the mission was ultimately successful, Davros was the only survivor.

The dome functioned as a counterpart to [[Kaled Dome|one]] used by the Kaleds. At its centre, the Thals had constructed a [[neutronic missile]] to be launched at the Kaled Dome. They hoped this would ultimately win the war against the Kaleds. Their goal was achieved through the help of the treacherous Kaled scientist [[Davros]], who provided the Thals with a chemical formula to weaken the Kaled Dome. Davros used this act to justify letting the [[Dalek]]s lose on the Thal civilians. The Daleks took no prisoners and few survived.
