Did anyone else think they were called "Darleks"?
Sometimes it was hard with the British accent to know when there was a soft-R or no R at all. Then when I saw the episode "Death to the Daleks" from the Pertwee era, one character who has a slightly different accent from regular British (Welsh perhaps?) throws in a hard-R and calls them "Darleks". This must have been a case of adding an extra R sound which Australians sometimes do at the end of words ending in a vowell, like with some Australian dubs of "Godziller" movies.
