Doctor Who Fan Builds His Own Dalek

A die-hard ‘Doctor Who’ fan octor Rob Bosher, who has built a full-size Dalek replica all by himself, for himself. The 47-year-old, from Birtley, Gateshead. He has spent around £700 on the build, using off-cuts of wood and scrap or charity shop items where possible. The robot has a base of an electric wheelchair, with a joystick-type control to direct its movements and it is fully fitted with a voice modulator to create the trademark croaky Dalek voice. And it also has working lights and a moving eye, made from a magic eight ball.
