Finally, at last, a two-parter that I actually enjoyed. The Daleks had a sense of threat that in the past wasn't so evidential in previous stories, and Capaldi and Bleach were fantastic together. The effects look more effective than before. Overall I was impressed with story and the production values of Dr Who with this opener. It seems the message has finally got through to Steven Moffat about the Daleks. Thank God that Moffat dispatched those shitty Tele-tubbie Daleks and finally stuck to the tried and tested RTD, 1960's model Daleks. My overall rating for the story would be 8/10. A decent, and effective story that doesn't quite deliver the superb mix that Tom Baker's Genesis of the Daleks delivered in terms of story,but this was a worthy attempt that certainly produced some great moments. I would have this two-parter over Stolen Earth and the rather horrendous Journey's End everytime. Written by none other than Russell T. Davies. Considering he (Russell) left Davros screaming in rage at the end of Journey's End like a child who's lost his dummy. This Moffat two-parter was everything Journey's End should of been.... Roll on next weeks underwater base under seige...

BBC sued over Who first drew the evil Dalek mastermind Davros | Daily Mail Online

"A friend of Mr Clark said: ‘Steven was 16 when the episode was aired. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw his creation on screen. It was a mixture of emotions. He was excited, confused and angry.’

The teenager, who by this time was working in his local branch of Halfords, contacted solicitors but it went no further because he had lost the copies of the competition entry.

However, 20 years later, he found them hidden in a set of family encyclopedias. He wrongly believed too much time had passed for another claim, although over the years he has sent several letters to the BBC asserting his rights over the character."


So, 'Genesis Of The Daleks' was first aired in 1975, that's 40 years ago, and he has only just got round to suing the BEEB!

Im slightly amused by his comments
He go for the which ever sum is the largest but money aspect is not my primary motive??? :pound: of course not eh!!!


Experts believe that if Mr Clark can prove otherwise, he stands to earn tens of thousands of pounds in compensation. One legal source said: ‘He is asking for damages or a pound-for-pound equivalent for all the profits generated by the character since he was introduced to viewers in 1975. The likelihood is that he will go for whichever sum is the largest.

The money aspect of it is not my primary motivation. I am proud of the character I created and I just want my work to be recognised.

Enjoyed the opening episode. Felt that the concluding part was less enthralling.

I have to say I thought that Saturday's concluding episode was terrific. The Doctor / Davros confrontation was brilliant - Moffat's writing here was top notch. Add to that the vocal and facial emotions by Julian Bleach were extraordinary.
The Jenna trapped in a Dalek situation was also a highlight. Definitely one of my favourite Capaldi episodes.
