Dalek Invasion - Salford 1987 was a two-page spalsh-panel parodical comic story in Tim Quinn and Dicky Howett's The Doctor Who Fun Book. With a title referencing Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. [+]Loading...["Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. (theatrical film)"], it joined another comic in the book (Dalek Invasion of Ealing 1987 [+]Loading...["Dalek Invasion of Ealing 1987 (comic story)"]) in deriving its comedy from humanity not taking the Daleks' invasion of their home very seriously.

Summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

A Dalek stalks the streets of Salford. Unfortunately for it, it bears a faint resemblance to a rubbish bin, and this is exactly what a passing housekeeper thinks it is.
