Mark Casto, 67, from Ditchingham, near Bungay, uses his artistic skills to build life-sized Dalek replicas to help raise awareness and funds for charities supporting disabled and homeless people.

He said: "It’s good to be able to take something that hates the whole human race and wants to destroy planet Earth, and turn it into a cause for something good."

Mr Casto made his first Dalek around the time the Covid pandemic began

He called it Dalek DL to pay homage to its head being made from a dustbin lid, which has since been deconstructed and revamped as Dalek Ernie.
