Summery[[edit] | edit source]

A Dalek turns up to an audition to be the next James Bond, entering a waiting room full of other candidates. One, overconfident candidate scoffs at the Dalek, saying "Bond has to be cool! Hardly the temperment of a Dalek!" The Dalek attempts to prove him wrong by speaking Bond's signature line "Dry martini, shaken, not stirred", only to begin stuttering on the word "stirred";

"...stir...stir...minate! Exterminate! Exterminate!" He zaps the smug actor as the others run away in terror. The Dalek realises he has blown it.

Worldbuilding[[edit] | edit source]

  • The Dalek auditions to be the next James Bond.
  • The Dalek attempts to quote Bond's iconic line "Dry martini, shaken, not stirred".

Notes[[edit] | edit source]

  • The idea of a Dalek getting into an exterminating frenzy after finding itself saying an innocuous human word (which happened to sound like a syllable of the word "exterminate") was previously used seriously in the TV episode Asylum of the Daleks, where the relevant word was "eggs".
