dr who ya' gonna' call?

Help.

We have a bit of a situation here at fruit towers. Almut Sprigade sent us in an army of psychadelic dalek hats. As we're prone to do with the hats we particularly admire, we put them up on display on one of our picnic benches, so that people wandering past could revel in their technicoloured brilliance.

But there was something crafty about these daleks. Were they really just hats? Or were they actual daleks? Could it be that their multicoloured exterior was simply there to fool us, deflecting attention away from their plans for global domination? First Sainsbury's, then the world. Mwah hah hah. We weren't sure. So we set up a secret camera to record them.

Here we can see them on day one, looking calm - meek even - but eerily still.

Two days later and the little blighters seemed to have moved closer to the camera.

By the time day three popped round, it was undeniable - the daleks were on the move.

Led by the purple one and what looks to be Elmo from Sesame Street, they moved quickly, destroying everything in their wake. We found our hidden camera yesterday amidst a pile of smashed smoothie bottles, its outer casing cracked, flash not working, a tear in its shattered lens.

And then nothing for days. No sign of the army of psychadelic daleks.

Until this afternoon. When a secondary camera caught this ominous scene. IT Sam trapped in the phone box with nowhere to run, the daleks bearing down on him. He doesn't stand a chance.

How can we compete against such reckless aggression? What will happen when the daleks reach the phone box? Will IT Sam live to tell the tale?

We'll keep you posted. In the mean time, if you have any suggestions as to how we can deal with this miniature, multicoloured, but very real threat, please let us know. The fate of fruit towers depends on you...

You're in serious need of a sonic screwdriver!!

I think you need a Doctor ;)

If I know anything, it's that smoothie-daleks are scared of any juice 'made from concentrate'.

Concentrate! ConcenTRATE!

I've GOT IT. Using the plasma radiation from a telephone tilgion socket (found in most common telephone boxes), blast through the gamma spaces in their shields. then, their are rendered defenceless - DROWN THEM IN CONCENTRATED ORANGE JUICE (the really nasty stuff that makes lots of saliva) .. that should do the trick. then, place them on a drying rack, to let the optimotes absorb the acid. . .

those are some clever words, huh?

Er, he's in a PHONE BOX!

Just use it to go back in time 5 minutes, and use your knowledge of their position to ambush them with juices "from concentrate"!

Quickly get your knitting needles out and knit a giant tardis to trick the pesky daleks into looking for the doctor and then trap them inside hehehe
I suppose then you'd have to do something else to dispose of them... but we can leave UNIT or Torchwood to sort that out if Sarah Jane doesn't get there first

Stamp on them?!

Threaten to let a cat out to play with them?

Brandish a bottle of Woolite?

Put them in a boil wash!

Hello this is really funny!!!

WATCH OUT FOR DAVROS lol

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
THIS MADE ME FALL OFF MY CHAIR LAUGHING!!!!! SO FUNNY!

Shouldn't someone start knitting the Doctor as soon as possible?

Don't hurt them !! they are cuddly daleks from a big softie planet. They are making first contact - you have to be nice to them. They may need to live in the phone box but you will need to make a ramp for them to get into the box. Also can you find them some fruity comfort so that they can stay soft??

you definatly need a sonic screwdriver.
Lol
