Eve of the Daleks Trivia Quiz

Answer: Manchester

The Doctor says early on it is in Manchester. The sign says "Elf storage" because the S fell down.

Manchester was first established as a Roman fort in 79 AD. It became a major factory town during the Industrial Revolution.

Answer: Sarah

Sarah was stuck working at ten minutes to Midnight on New Year's Eve because her most faithful client would be coming in.

Sarah was played by Aisling Bea. The Irish comedian's real last name is O'Sullivan. She studied at Trinity College in Dublin and at LAMDA. She has won several comedy awards and a BAFTA Award for Breakthrough Talent.

Mary was Sarah's mother. Nicole and Lucy were ex-girlfriends of Nick.

Answer: Cash

Jeff, the loser boyfriend who ditched Sarah, had stuffed animals, a disturbing amount of beans and beef and canisters of hazardous materials among the items in his units.

Jeff also appeared to have an apartment in one unit, violating the "no people" provision.

Answer: Building Council

Sarah thought the Doctor was from the Building Council. Nick thought it strange the city would send three inspectors out on New Year's Eve.

The psychic paper has come in handy on many occasions. The Ninth Doctor first used it in "The End of the World" (2005). It tends to give the Doctor an air of authority, but not always the one they initially imagined.

Answer: Nick

Nick is smart enough to duck when the Daleks are facing each other. They annihilate each other.

Nick was played by Adjani Salmon. He is probably best known for his work on "Dreaming Whilst Black" in 2018 and 2023. He was also on the drama show "Chivalry" (2022). The Jamaican immigrant is an aspiring director who has done several short films.

Answer: Unstoppable

The Daleks said they were unstoppable, which proved to be wrong since the Doctor took them out by blowing up a building.

The other statements by the Daleks:
- Daleks answer to no one
- Daleks do not store stuff
- Daleks do not have managers
- Daleks are never sorry
- Daleks are not fair
- Daleks are not worried
- Daleks do not have friends

Nicholas Briggs has been the voice of the Daleks on television since 2005. He has also done numerous Big Finish audiobooks.

Answer: Eight

There were eight loops, starting at 23:52, 23:53, 23:54, 23:55, 23:56, 23:57, 23:58, and 23:59. They lost one minute on each loop.

Nick was killed first in loops 1, 2 and 3.
Dan was killed first in loop 4 after taunting the Dalek.
They were killed collectively on loop 5.
Nick was killed first in loops 6 and 7.
Everyone survived loop 8.

In the end, Sarah stated they were killed eight times.

Answer: False

Dan confronts Yaz about how she feels about the Doctor, which is a logical conversation given they've just been killed about half a dozen times. Yaz admits how she feels but doesn't say anything by the end of "Eve of the Daleks."

Dan tells the Doctor about Yaz during the next loop. The Doctor... Spoilers (Easter special).

Mandip Gill was with Jodie Whittaker from "The Woman Who Fell to Earth" (2018) to "Power of the Doctor" (2022). Her character Yaz evolved remarkably, to the point she was piloting the TARDIS. Like Whitaker, she is from Yorkshire.

Answer: Flor de la Mar

The Flor de la Mar was one of the largest ships in the history of Portuguese sailing. It sailed from 1502 to 1511, primarily in the Indian Ocean.

The Flor de la Mar sank off the coast of Sumatra in 1511, with a cargo of gold estimated at worth over $2 billion.

The shipwreck plays a big role in "Legend of the Sea Devils", the 2022 Easter special.

Answer: Annetta Laufer

Annetta Laufer directed. She got her start as a script supervisor before becoming a director. She has won awards for her short films "Winnie and the Duppie Bat" (2006) and "Afro Punk Girl" (2017).

Pauline McLynn had the supporting role of Mary, Sarah's mom, who we see only over the telephone. She does play an important role in blowing up the Daleks, calling in and triggering the explosion.

Barnaby Edwards was one of the Daleks. He began working on "Doctor Who" in 2005 and has appeared in most Dalek episodes.

Segun Akinola was the composer for seasons 11, 12, and 13 of "Doctor Who."
