Howdy Jon and Paul! How can anyone ever dismiss this Dalek story! If the story hadn't been as compelling as it obviously was, we'd not see the nature of Daleks genuinely becoming one of three arch enemies to the Doctor. Thank you so much for sharing!
Hi Divining Dragon thanks for your comments. I agree this story not only launched an iconic monster/villain for the Doctor but blasted this show into the atmosphere with regards to its popularity. We are recording Aztecs and Reign of Terror next weekend and that’s season 1 complete. Looking forward to Dalek Invasion of Earth and trust me we haven’t forgotten about the Cushing movies! 🙂👍
Nice discussion guys. I'm lucky enough and old enough to have seen this when it first aired as a 6 year old living in a tiny Welsh village. So instant nostalgia for me. I seem to be in the minority here, but I really enjoyed ( & bought) the recent colourised and heavily edited version. However the original is my go to despite being slow going in sections. I'm often baffled by some of the criticism , particularly much younger fans than us regarding the viewing experience being a bit of a slog. They forget that Doctor Who was not made for binging ( partly because the term as such didn't exist). You would watch an episode on the edge of your seat ( I know it's a cliche now but I actually did hide behind the sofa) and wait a whole week from the next part. Every episode was savoured. I'm looking forward to more Classic Who chats👌
Hi Doug Glad you enjoyed it we had a blast recording this one. Glad you enjoyed the colourised version I have it in the collection but it just didn’t work for me. Like you the original in always the one I go to just because it’s been a lovely companion since I was a kid. 🙂 We recorded a couple today The Keys of Marinus which will go live Monday at 18:00 UK and The Aztecs that will go live a week Monday at 18:00. Our schedule will be Monday nights and we will also be looking to discuss other sci-fi shows and movies that will go out on other nights.
Very true. New Who misses the serialized format, where we can only digest half an hour at a time, maybe once a week. I think the binge process loses something in terms of a show creating a cultural touchstone that lasts generations. Young people DON'T know what they are missing.
I always thought at this point the Dr was deliberately mispronouncing Ian’s name to get a little back for the loss of authority over the group. Hartnell’s line fluffs seem to have been in the middle of long sentences. Has anyone got a copy of the Titan Books script book for The Daleks - that would be interesting to compare

Yes a running gag, not the first time but It kept happening
It did where do you stand on whether it was deliberate or whether William Russell was covering for William Hartnell? 🙂
7/10 a little long want to see colorized/edited version. Saw omnibus versions of all of these for first watch
It’s the original broadcast version for me it’s so good but I do think they could have trimmed it down to six episodes.

Interesting point Warren. I don’t have a copy but will try and track one down.
