20 Doctor Who Moments We'll NEVER Forget
1. Barbara Is Menaced By A Dalek (The Daleks)
If there's something that ties Doctor Who together across six decades, it's the skills of the actors to lend gravitas to special effects that often look a bit ropey. In that regard, Jacqueline Hill was a trailblazer that fundamentally changed the shape of the show.
Due to the nature of Doctor Who filming in the 1960s, Hill wasn't acting opposite a full Dalek prop – she was acting opposite assistant floor manager Michael Ferguson, brandishing a Dalek sucker arm.
Regardless, Hill absolutely sells the horror of the moment, teasing the eventual Dalek reveal the next week. And thus, a legend was born. An unforgettable moment that gets a new lease of life via the 60th anniversary colourisation – and it's hard to think of something more deserving.
