On
this date in 1963, the general public first became aware of the alien
cyborgs known as Daleks.
These
horrible creatures are from Skaro, and they have somehow been
enclosed in strong tanklike structures – so they're really
difficult to fight. If you see them, you're in trouble, because
they're more like to exterminate you than to try to make friends!
Luckily,
Daleks are fictional!
These
science fiction characters are part of the mega-popular, long-lasting
TV show Doctor Who. The Daleks are some of the time-traveling
Doctor's worst enemies!
Fans
of the show, called Whovians, are not satisfied with celebrating the birthday of the show (called Dr. Who Day by some, Tardis Day
by others).
They also celebrate such holidays as Impossible Astronaut Day (April
23), Black Spot Day (May 7), Bad Wolf Day (June 3), and of course
International Dalek Remembrance Day!

I'm not sure how we celebrate the day. I did a little research but didn't turn up too much info. I suspect it is an excuse to watch more Dr. Who. I guess you could stay busy watching episodes that feature Daleks, since there are almost 100 such episodes!
