Of course, it would have been far too easy if we’d included the likes of the Daleks and the Cybermen, so we’ve gone for those who are a little more obscure. Simply name as many of the monsters below as you can from the extreme close-ups.

As per usual this quiz is just for fun. Feel free to boast/lament in the comments section about how well/poorly you’ve done, but please don’t post any answers here. (Anyone who does can expect to find a Yeti sitting on their loo.) You can post answers in this thread , but make sure you use invisible text.
