Prince of Wales voice of the Daleks!
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-23153948
The Prince of Wales took over one of the infamous Daleks before telling the crowd "you are now our prisoners"
The Prince of Wales has been offered a role in Doctor Who after impressing the show's writer with his Dalek voice.
Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall are on a visit to the set at BBC Wales' Roath Lock studios on day three of their summer tour of Wales.
Prince Charles tried his hand at being a sci-fi baddie by uttering the Daleks' famous "exterminate" catchphrase into a voice modulator.
Writer Steven Moffat thought he was "great".
He said: "I haven't thought about how I could weave a meeting between the Doctor and the royal family. But Prince Charles's attempt at being a Dalek was great.
"There would be a part in the show for him if he wanted it."
During the visit on Wednesday morning, the royal couple was greeted by BBC Wales director Rhodri Talfan Davies in Cardiff Bay - where Doctor Who is recorded - and then posed for pictures with two gold-coloured Daleks.
The couple also met Matt Smith, who currently plays the Doctor but is stepping down, and Jenna Coleman, who plays his companion, as well as series head writer Mr Moffat.
The tour included the set of the Tardis, the Doctor's time travelling ship, as well as a display of some of the show's monsters, including a weeping angel and a cyberman.
Nicholas Briggs, who voices the Daleks, demonstrated some of their famous catchphrases, while production staff showed how a green screen set is used to generate some of the programme's special effects.
Doctor Who is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.
In addition to Doctor Who, Roath Lock is also home to BBC programmes including Casualty, the Welsh-language drama Pobol y Cwm and children's drama Wizards vs Aliens.
Later Prince Charles will visit the new headquarters of his charity, Prince's Trust Cymru where he will meet volunteers, staff and young people.
The Duchess of Cornwall will visit a shop in Porthcawl for the homeless charity Emmaus, of which she is patron.
On a visit to Treharris near Merthyr Tydfil, Prince Charles will go to the Farmers' Co-operative Shop, and meet staff and local farmers.
On Monday the couple visited the last home of poet Dylan Thomas in Laugharne, Carmarthenshire, and on Tuesday held a series of engagements in north Wales.

Hhahaha genius. Well done HRH Sir Prince Charles! Perhaps he could be attacked by The Wire so he wouldn't have to actually be in the story... that sort of thing has been done before.
Pity. I have no understanding of the word. It is not registered in my vocabulary bank. EXTERMINATE!
