Hi Nicholas,
IIRC the hatch isn't in the Tardis ceiling, but in an underground
chamber of Skaro. I think you might mean the episodes Destiny of the
Daleks in Season 17:

Doesn't the plot of one of the 1960s films hinge on the Daleks not being
able to levitate though? Bit inconsistent. Are the films not considered
canonical?

Hi guys,
I'm after some best-practice advice regarding SQL database design.
I have a table (say artist, couldn't resist...) that has a one-to-many
relationship to another table (say album). The album table has a field
which references the artist table's ID. So one artist can have many
albums.
You're all making a very common error - it's not Dr Who, it's Mr Who.
I remember it from Trivial Pursuit. Or was that something to do with Star
Trek...can never remember.

Even for a show so utterly free of consistency as _Doctor Who_, the
films are not considered canonical.

No. (The wikipedia article itself says The film was not intended to form part
of the ongoing storylines of the television series. and
I think you want a window function (see for example
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/tutorial-window.html )
Something like:
SELECT name,title

SELECT artist.name,album.title,rank() OVER (
PARTITION BY artist.id ORDER BY album.date DESC
) as r
FROM artist

Something like this? Doesn't use a join etc, but has the merit of simplicity.
SELECT * FROM Artist, Album WHERE Artist.Id = $artist_id AND Album.ArtistId =
$artist_id ORDER BY album.date DESC LIMIT 1?

In general I guess it's cleaner to do:
SELECT * FROM artist WHERE id = ?
SELECT * FROM album WHERE artist_id = ? ORDER BY release_date DESC LIMIT 1
OR
SELECT * from artist INNER JOIN album ON (artist.id = album.artist_id)

The two films aren't canonical. They are loose remakes of the first two
Dalek stories from the TV series. With Peter Cushing playing a human
inventor called Doctor Who.

Why not include a sub-select like,
... where album.published = (select max(album.published) from album
join artist on album.artist_id = artist.id) ...
