Did you know? Rumor has it Sony used 'alien technology' from Daleks to solve overheating in their 1980s BVH-2000 videotape machines! 🛸📼 But really, it was all Sony’s engineering—no extraterrestrial tech, just a clever heatsink. Earthling ingenuity at its best! #DrWho #Daleks

Yes, keep recording!! You just never know, maybe someone might just recover this recording 34 years later in the very distant futuristic year of 2024! 🤣 😄 😀 😂
