Dalek makes chilling appearance in Faversham

There was no exterminating the
chilling effect this Dalek snowman had in Faversham today.
Dr Who’s arch nemesis made an icy
return on Sunday after heavy snowfall hit the town.
And while the Time Lord will
eventually defeat the Dalek, with the help of some warm weather,
for now it is standing guard as visitors enter the
town.
The Dalek snowman was built on the
corner of Forbes Road during the cold snap by Faversham father Mark
Holmes and his 13-year-old daughter Daisy.
Dad Mark said: "Daisy absolutely loves
Dr Who. She calls herself a Whovian and it was her idea to build
the Dalek.
"We had help from neighbouring kids
and it took a couple of hours to make it. We are really pleased
with it.
"There were cars stopping last night
to take a picture of it and people have said they really like the
idea."
And it is not the first time that the
father and daughter duo have created a snow sensation. Last year
they built a Statue of Liberty inspired snowwoman to welcome
visitors to the town.
This summer Mark also helped to
brighten up Faversham with his Olympic themed decorations on the
front of his home in Forbes Road.
