Such a satisfying conclusion to #Daleks. Well done to Nick Briggs, James Goss, and the entire cast and crew for delivering this epic animated miniseries! 👏
Daleks! Episode 5: Friend or Foe? Dalek Strategist is the kind of guy who always holds a trump card nobody knows about but it's always there in plain sight. Probably my favourite episode so far in terms of visuals, story, everything! Amazing finale!
The Emperor Dalek savagely taking the mickey out of the Mechanoids by calling the ‘Strategist Dalek’s’ plan ‘beautiful’ makes me giggle every time I hear it.
I think this series is done for now, but i wouldn't mind another like this. (Maybe with other monsters in the doctor who universe, like the cybermen. But that would be very unlikely because this is mostly about the time lord victorious stuff.)
The Doctor ain't been the same since Capaldi left... Hopefully the Next Doctor will resurrect the the guy fans all over the world are anxious to see return.
Even though I figured out the Strategist plan before it happened, I still loved it. The Strategist NEEDS to appear in TV show. He's got so much more character than any of the current main cast, lol.
As soon as the Strategist said it needed to change something, I knew it was going to betray the Mechanoids. I actually thought "HOW could you so easily fall for that?" 🤦♀️
Well, they are Mechonoids. While these ones seem more sophisticated as usual, even the higher castes are kinda dull and uncreative at best, and about as smart as a toaster at worst.
They were desperate. Without the help of the Strategist the Mechanoids would lose the battle. Naturally, they relied on the Strategist too heavily and paid the ultimate price for it.
The Strategist opening a portal to the entity's dimension was a risk. While it was a most _efficient_ way to remove the mechonoids we would have defeated them anyway.
Correct but the dalek weapons thou powerful it can be more powerful same for the dalek armor there are powerful beings out there but evolution is the dalek's greatest gift daleks will evolve daleks will conquer and daleks will exterminate all inferior beings
i have seen you comment before on another Doctor who dalek video, i think it might of been the Video were they "kill" missy and clara and "blow up" the tardis
You know, this series has been exactly what I was missing from Series 11/12, I refilled the void that was left after those 2 previous series'. Thank you Nick Briggs and crew.
I love that despite knowing everything the Daleks will do and how evil they are, we’re still encouraged to side with them as if they are the good in this scenario. Also this episode is by far the best one visually
@@rowanlock3517 They do kind of hint he might survive. I actually thought he might be the last Dalek in Genetics of the Daleks and A Dalek Awakens but apparently not.

This Episode both enhanced and broke my ‘ship’ of the Dalek Strategist & the Mechonoid Scientist Yes, I hate myself that I had shipped a Dalek & a Mechonoid. Exterminate me
I just... really love how the Dalek Emperor mutters "good" to himself as he's watching the fight. I can't quite articulate why I think that one word, delivered that way, struck me so. I just really liked that moment. Just like how he proclaims the Strategist's ploy was "Beautiful!" It's just this really...fascinating little moment.
I’ve been loving this series! It’s so wonderful to see the characterisation of the dalek Strategist and the emperor is great! The Mechanoids will be exterminated!
I love this! And it's a tour de force for Nicholas Briggs. He gave the emperor and the strategist real personality. It would be fun to see them in the live action show.
I remember seeing the Mechanoids back in the 60's, loved / was terrified of them. I drew them, and made models of them to pit against my toy Daleks (Louis Marx, etc al) Odd, but hugely gratifying to see them revived fifty+ years on. This is remarkable animation, so detailed and nuanced, right down to pitting and scarring on the Dalek casings. Even watching on a phone, I enjoyed it immensely, excellent story, too.
This Episode both enhanced and broke my ‘ship’ of the Dalek Strategist & the Mechonoid Scientist Yes, I hate myself that I had shipped a Dalek & a Mechonoid. Exterminate me
Am I the only person who wants to try and clean/fix the Strategist's eye stalk? Bless him, having worn glasses my whole life, I feel sorry for him - it's really annoying - especially when you don't have any hands or a clean cloth handy! 😁
The thing I love the most about this series is that they've somehow managed to get a hinted Dalek/Mechanoid romantic tension subplot into it. I really hope the Strategist and Mechanoid 2150 will meet again.
Mechanoid just thought it could find a friend and equal from a people who hate everyone else. Nothing more. It's easy to imagine that "IN-COR-RECT" spoken with a cruel and self-satisfied smirk, though.
This reminded me of the wonderful old Dalek comic strips I used to read in TV21 when I was a boy. Much better than Big Finish's disappointing Dalek Empire audios. Thank you.
Very entertaining! Very much in the spirit of the 1960s TV21 Dalek stories where the Daleks did, in fact, twice face the threat of destruction on their own home-world. Once was due to the invasion of Skaro by a bunch of blue-skinned characters called "Monstrons", who used "Engibrain" robot soldiers to first attack the Dalek City, then engulf it in fast-drying liquid metal (!). The second time was when a Dalek experiment went wrong and an explosion created a cloud of radio-active (?) rust that attacked Dalek casings. In both cases, these threats were defeated by a single Dalek using initiative and ingenuity (sometimes suicidally), allowing others to survive and rebuild - which they always did! Long live the Empire!!!
"That is not a question...it is a statement" how can you not love the strategist 😂 this series was a pleasant surprise! also who else played the *Doctor Who Adventure Games* back in 2010? I swear the room at 9:50 is borrowed from "City of the Daleks"
The first series is definitely fantastic. It was great to see the Daleks back on their homeworld. Very epic laser blasts scenes. I hope you will release more chapters in the future.
Everyone praises the Strategist’s cunning plan(well deserved, of course), but I’m more surprised that the Emperor risked his own life to make the plan work. I can see why the Strategist wants to keep him around.
That's was incredible. And by the looks of things we’re getting a sequel!!! I mean it was literally one of the best Dalek stories I’ve ever seen. Back on episode 1, it looked so bad, it just felt awful, but it has fully redeemed itself. They had the strategist finally get to fully show his abilities, they brought back the mechanoids in an amazing way, and the fact they were able to pull off a story this epic, with a budget that small, is quite honestly..... FANTASTIC!!!!
And so it ends. Or does it just begin? Thank you to the DW team and the BBC for these past few Dalek-filled Thursdays! DALEKS! has been a joy to watch and a great addition to the Time Lord Victorious storyline! Looking forward to next seeing the Daleks again on a TV screen near me soon in "Revolution of the Daleks" on New Year's Day 2021! Cannot wait to see The Doctor and Team TARDIS unite with Captain Jack Harkness to stand up and fight against whatever evil plans the Daleks have put into motion!
Well this was plot twist after another.. First, (possibly first time in ages) Mechanoids invaded Skaro. Should have guessed that in Dalek city, there would be secret bunkers where Daleks waited and that in far way solar systems, there would have been Dalek out-posts Then during the battle, it looked like Strategist was gonna betray the Emperor but Strategist turned the tables one more time. Though that last note.. I think Daleks will have something to be afraid for days to come. Guess this words would fit in this: *No one isn't really gone..*
Awesome episode and overall a really enjoyable series! The animation was actually quite good in the last two episodes, the daleks were great (especially the strategist!), and hopefully we get a series two, especially after the cliffhanger! 😁
This series is great and it proves that you can have a fantastic series all about one monster. (I kind of want to see if this could be done again but with the cybermen instead.)
You actually already have. In the TLV timeline the dalek executioner units are driven by the former special weapons dalek mutants. One of the audios actually gives an idea on why daleks hated the special weapons units so much
¡Que Dios bendiga a esta serie y a toda la franquicia del Doctor Who en general, que Dios la bendiga! Ahora un minuto de silencio para todos los fans de Doctor Who que esperaron años o incluso décadas para ver una serie de los Daleks y el retorno de los Mecanoides, pero que lamentablemente no vivieron lo suficiente para ver esto.
Loved it. As much as all flesh is grass. Great book. I really enjoyed the 3 doctors storyline. Just imagining what all three looked like as they were dressed to fight the Daleks in the Dark Times. Epic
As I watch the cross-fire I can't help but think of Stormtroopers vs Red-Shirts. So much fire going on, but so little destruction. If this had been a human standoff, it would have been over in the first 90 seconds.

If I don't see a SINGLE special weapons dalek I'll be very disappointed.
You actually already have. In the TLV timeline the dalek executioner units are driven by the former special weapons dalek mutants. One of the audios actually gives an idea on why daleks hated the special weapons units so much
I don't often comment but guys, that was superb, more please.
¡Que Dios bendiga a esta serie y a toda la franquicia del Doctor Who en general, que Dios la bendiga! Ahora un minuto de silencio para todos los fans de Doctor Who que esperaron años o incluso décadas para ver una serie de los Daleks y el retorno de los Mecanoides, pero que lamentablemente no vivieron lo suficiente para ver esto.
Loved it. As much as all flesh is grass. Great book. I really enjoyed the 3 doctors storyline. Just imagining what all three looked like as they were dressed to fight the Daleks in the Dark Times. Epic
Absolutely brilliant
More please.
Totally love these Dalek stories
Dalek Emperor & Daleks vs. mechonoids 4:16
Dalek Emperor: “EXTERMINATE!!"
That was awesome!! I got worried for a second that the daleks were going to loose but they survived
1:49 I just realized the daleks have hot wheels tracks.
Well he isn't called the Strategist for nothing
Daleks: *WE DEMAND A SEASON 2!*
*WE DEMAND A SEASON 2!*
*WE DEMAND A SEASON 2!*
*WE DEMAND A SEASON 2!*
As I watch the cross-fire I can't help but think of Stormtroopers vs Red-Shirts. So much fire going on, but so little destruction. If this had been a human standoff, it would have been over in the first 90 seconds.
