The Churnet Valley Railway once again staged a Dalek Event this time on the August Bank Holiday. The theme was a dark sewer tunnel system where humans were taken to be scanned for intelligence, does that sound familiar? The set was built inside the booking hall at Kingsley and Froghall Station. |

Derek at the entrance to the Sewer Tunnel
Set. Inside can be heard dripping water and the sound of a Tardis materialising.
|
Amongst the ivy and cobwebs can be found
a long scarfed exterminated skeleton and to the right of the Doctor's
Tardis another
|
tunnel leading to the intelligence scanning
area. After scanning the humans are taken out of the exit tunnel to be
processed...

Thanks to my friends Ric and Tony plus
all the staff at the CVR for all their hard work over the five days it
took to set up, perform and then dismantle everything. Thanks also to Mgt for going to Egypt and not interfering with what turned out to be the best CVR event of the year ! (joke honest)
