Actually no, I haven't read that story. That's very interesting! I was just wondering how much credit Terry Nation actually deserves for the Daleks, because it's the way they move and look that really makes them, and I thought that maybe it was actually the production designer (or whoever's in charge of monster-making) who should be getting all the royalties. But it sounds like Terry Nation came up with the way they look, too? I'm also amazed at how little Daleks have changed over the years. Sontarans and Cybermen have been redesigned, but Daleks are the same. Well, except for Moffat's latest Day-Glo colors, but I like to think that will turn out to be a temporary aberration.
