KIDNAPPED DALEK FOUND ON GLASTONBURY TOR

In the early hours of Tuesday Morning we got a phone call on our emergency 24 hour line from the kidnappers telling us The Dalek has become too hot to handle and has been left at Glastonbury Tor.

We sent a member of our staff up to the tor to make sure it doesn’t get stolen again, while we work out how to get this heavy Dalek back down the tor.

How did they get the Dalek up to the Tor? , More importantly how are we going to get this heavy mechanised monster back down the hill?

A local person came with the idea of asking cave rescue to help, and they agreed.

Between 12pm & 1pm the rescue team will be bringing the dalek down from the torr on a rescue stretcher

We feel the £500 reward offered for the return of the Dalek should be paid to the cave rescue team

Latest News: Thursday 9th June 05

We have now received a ransom note along with a part of the missing Dalek.

Dalek stolen from Wookey Hole Caves!

If anyone has any information as to the whereabouts of our missing Dalek,
please call our Dalek hotline 07980 829637

We believe he is one of the original Daleks from the old series. He can be identified by his limp plunger which fell victim to a ferocious attack by a five year old.

On the 18th & 19th of June we will be holding our annual Dr Who exhibition with many characters & monsters from the series including Colin Baker and we obviously need him back as he is one of the most popular characters and the star of our show.

Wookey Hole Caves are appealing for the recovery of the Dalek and are offering a £500 reward for information leading its return.

Our local police believe this is one of the most unusual theft investigations they have dealt with.

Police are appealing for help to trace a Dalek which was stolen from Wookey Hole Caves.

The Dr Who creature was stolen overnight on June 6 and 7 from the site.

Police believe thieves may have had to use a vehicle to move the Dalek.

PC Neil Wolstenholme said: “The Dalek could have been stolen to order or somebody could have taken it as a joke.

“It is obviously quite distinctive and somebody must know where it is.”

Police are asking anyone with information to contact PC Wolstenholme at Wells Police Station on 0845 4567000
