The TH-cam trailer for Master! has the Daleks led by a black and silver version of the red and gold Time War Supreme from The Stolen Earth / Journey's End. Given that the Supreme is also described as "the Black Dalek" in that set it’s fair to assume that design choice was intentional. The Dalek Parliament being involved is interesting though, I hadn’t previously thought of the Dalek stuff in Master! being set post-Time War due to it seeming to occur not long after the Master's trial from The TV Movie. But I suppose in a timey-wimey sense it’s possible.
A deserved favorite Dalek for many! One thing you didn't mention is that Mila escaped the Daleks during The Chase, meaning that the Time Controller might have been responsible for the Daleks' time travel capabilities in that story and targeted the 1st Doctor in an effort to erase his influence on the Dalek timeline
That's right, I briefly touched on that in my video about the Pursuer-Daleks, I wanted to mention it here but I had to cut this video down a lot, even so it ended up being 10+ minutes long
I had no idea that this guy was the Dalek Litigator! Hope I'm spelling that right... What I love about the Time Controller, outside of the other things you mentioned regarding its autonomy and personality(An uncommon treat & outlier among Daleks), is its design. Purple and Gold are considered regal as colors, and it fits said personality. I found a cool animation I think you'd love featuring this Dalek, though you've probably seen it already: th-cam.com/video/3vTj0MD-iR0/w-d-xo.html
The time controllers history is strange but it’s a little more linear then u might think. I personally think that the time controller was part of the paradigm as they were more advanced than the pre time war daleks. I also think the time controller used the guise of the dalek litigator to interfere with things like the masters trial as to preserve history. I also think despite the daleks on the cover of patient zero being classic daleks that these daleks are post time war daleks far in the future
Specifically didn’t watch this video because I’d bought Lucie Millier, To The Death and all of Dark Eyes for myself for Christmas and didn’t want anything spoiled 😂
Ooh, you're in for a treat! LM/TTD is fantastic, and the Dark Eyes series was a turning point for Big Finish, a true 16-parr epic. Paul McGann is fantastic as always and there are some great scenes with him and the Alex Macqueen Master, and also him and the Time Controller
They take place in the era immediately preceding the Time War, but there's a lot of audios that come after these ones that also predate the Time War (Doom Coalition, Ravenous, Stranded and the new Eighth Doctor box sets) but there have been a few hints that the Eighth Doctor audios are leading up to the Time War, the most recent series has shown the Doctor encountering bronze Time War Daleks for the first time (from his POV) and eventually the ongoing Eighth Doctor series will presumably link up with the Eighth Doctor: Time War audios to make one long continuous story, but that likely won't happen for many years
im actually curioous about what exactly can the time controller do besides all of the standard dalek abilites. Like i get they explain he has temporal sensitivity but they mention his manipulating the timlines and i dont recall if they ever elaborated on what that meant or if he has any other unique powers?
Time Controller: Doctor! You have caused confusion and delay for the Daleks!
It's interesting that this particular dalek is a time traveling renegade of it's species, in many ways it's quite similar to the doctor
It truly is a most villainous Dalek. It's a shame that we'll probably never see it in the TV series. At least this incarnation of it anyway.
I had no idea the Time Controller was in that Master boxset, what kind of Supreme Dalek was he working with?
A paradigm Supreme considering the dialogue makes clear both reported to the parliament

OH YES. I have been waiting for this topic for a while. Daleks are awful, but this particular one is a MONSTER.
I mean, no Dalek chooses to be evil, they're engineered that way. Actual Nazis...and Davros of course chose to be evil
Another very well made video. You could create an encyclopaedia with your knowledge, it’s fascinating to listen to. Well done ❤❤
Thanks! I hope to write a Dalek lore reference book one day
@@dalekbumps you should, you seem to have everything down to a T
@@dalekbumpsI'd buy that book at the drop of a hat!
My personal favourite Dalek Nick Briggs ever voiced
Great lore as usual it's cool that this dalek has an arc
Best dalek character hands down, it's shame it unlikley we will ever see it on screen. Time strategist is also brilliant too however.
Long live the dalek time controller!!!
Back at it again with the best doctor who TH-cam videos this side of Skaro
WOW, amazing effort in writing the convoluted history of the Time Controller
Awesome video and its posted today of all days my birthday. I wonder if the TV Series would ever bring this baddie in the show
My favourite dalek design
Without a doubt one of the most interesting Daleks, great video as well!

A truly fascinating Dalek concept.

wow to out rank the supreme dalek ,pity we dont see this dalek in nuwho ,,how high was dalek sec to these daleks?
Is Terror Firma, Blood of the Daleks and Dark Eyes the build up to the Time War?

what is the difference between the stratigist and the controller always got mixed up by them
The Time Strategist is the Time Controller's successor, who was active during the Time War
@@dalekbumps ah i see,wish i could see that dalek in nuwho
@@dalekbumps th-cam.com/video/BiMsWCFeUlQ/w-d-xo.html
this this dalek is the controller next to davros
I made a few different versions of your outro if you wanna see them
They're brilliant!
@@dalekbumps thanks!
Just watched them, great stuff 🤩
I'm a huge fan of daleks why don't you make a video on what if the doctor didn't get shot in the stolen Earth and journey's end
Did the Dalek time controller appear in the Dalek generation?
Some of these Daleks look like OCs Do Not Steal
Didn't the Time Controller start life in the 1960s as a plasma ball. ... 🙂
