Very " English "... from the UK TV series of the 60's thru 90's...called Dr. Who...a Time Lord who uses a time machine disguised as a British Police Box ( called the TARDIS ) to travel through time.
The Dalek's were aliens tapped in robot "bodies"...and they were on a mission to "exterminate" all life...the Doctor's sworn enemies throughout time itself.
One of my favorite sci-fi's growing up...watched on PBS Channel 12 in black and white...when we only had channels 3-6-10-12-17-29-48-57 to watch...pre cable.
The Dr. always had hot female time travelers he would pick up on the way through the universe...and. of course, she was always the damsel in distress.
Betty...with the Doctor...in one of his many incarnations ( which meant the actor moved on )
Leela...inside the T. A. R. D. I. S. ( a British Police Box )
Natalie Dormer...1st Female Doctor Who...shown with TARDIS Police Box
