"Destination: Skaro" [5][6][7] Russell T Davies 17 November 2023
In a military base on the planet Skaro, a pre-mutated Davros meets with his
assistant Mr Castavillian to present his new creation: a prototype Dalek. Although
they're yet to choose a name. When Davros exits the scene, the TARDIS comes
crashing into the base and takes off the Dalek's claw. The Fourteenth Doctor,
who's still puzzled by the return of his old face, notices the damage he's caused
and realises the claw belongs to the Dalek. But when calling the machine a "Dalek"
and being thankful that it didn't "exterminate" him, the Doctor inadvertently
gives Castavillian the ideas for both a name and a catchphrase. The Doctor soon
realises that he's actually witnessing the genesis of the Daleks. He hastily
swaps the broken claw for a sink plunger that he finds in the TARDIS, and tells
Castavillain to pretend he was never there, before leaving. After returning,
Davros approves of the plunger.
(Doctor Who Story No. 44) 1968, written by Mervyn Haisman & Henry Lincoln, under the name "Norman Ashby".
Very unflattering costumes for the natives - which looked as if they were made from curtains? and of course the women's clothes were transparent, and shorter!
Sonic screwdriver is used to cut through a panel, I think for the first time.
Hippy-style pacifist Dulkis residents, and only Jamie and one guy willing to fight back: Cully. The leader's son of course. And he seemed a lot less conscious of his short skirt than Jamie was of his kilt! The Dominators are humanoid, with more silly costumes, the leader at least appeared able to think strategically while his second is a simple psychopath "kill 'em all" soldier.
As you can see, animated shop dummies were not Russell's invention. Nor the Nestene Consciousness. Oh, and it's got TENTACLES!

Daleks "The Daleks... DAH-leks) are a fictional extraterrestrial race of mutants principally portrayed in the British science fiction television programme Doctor Who. The Daleks were conceived by science-fiction writer Terry Nation and first appeared in the 1963 Doctor Who serial The Daleks, in the shells designed by Raymond Cusick." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalek

| 1st Doctor | The DVD was released on 21st September 2009 in the UK | The Keys of Marinus The Sea of Death |
The Beginning Box set contains these three episodes | Susan, Ian, Barbara | Voord | Terry Nation wrote this story as a replacement to The Red Fort, a story that was to be set during the Indian Mutiny. Too political? Terry Nation developed more background in his script than was made explicit onscreen in the finished production. The Voord were alien invaders who took advantage of the people of Marinus, rendered vulnerable by the pacifying effects of the Conscience. The Conscience was then deactivated to allow the Marinians to fight the Voord, and over the centuries, the time they spent on Marinus meant that the Voord, too, could now be affected by the machine. Therefore, Arbitan dispatched agents to recover the keys which would reactivate the Conscience and allow him to finally defeat the invaders. This story contains a controversial scene in which it appears that Vasor attempts to rape Barbara — a sequence which, surprisingly, did not prevent the BBC Video release in 1999 from being granted a "U" certificate. This is one of only two televised Doctor Who stories by Terry Nation not to feature the Daleks. The other was The Android Invasion, more than a decade later. |

The Temple of Evil | Susan, Ian, Barbara |
The Aztecs was the first story to address the issue of altering the course of history and the first to involve a romantic subplot concerning the Doctor. The arrival of the TARDIS in 15th century Mexico leads the crew to the doomed Aztec people, a mixture of high culture and brutal savagery. Matters are further complicated when Barbara is mistaken for a god and the Doctor becomes engaged to be married. |

Strangers in Space | Peter R. Newman | Susan, Ian, Barbara | Susan's description of her home planet was almost directly quoted by the Tenth Doctor in Gridlock, and Planet of the Ood suggested a kinship between the Ood and the equally telepathic Sensorites. Peter R. Newman based the story on time he spent in a Japanese POW Camp in World War II. The Doctor loses his original coat, which is ripped when he is attacked
by an unseen figure in the aqueduct at the start of "Kidnap",
and replaces it with a cloak — marking the first permanent costume
change for the Doctor in the series. |

The TARDIS materialises not far from Paris in 1794 — one of the bloodiest years following the French Revolution of 1789. The travellers become involved with an escape chain rescuing prisoners from the guillotine and get caught up in the machinations of an English undercover spy, James Stirling — alias Lemaitre, governor of the Conciergerie prison. |

| 1st Doctor, Series 2 | part-animated (episode 3 and 4) | Planet of Giants |
Planet of Giants | Louis Marks | inspiration for the story was the seminal pro-ecology work by Rachel Carson, Silent Spring, which warned strongly against insecticides. He reckoned that by shrinking the First Doctor, he would have the opportunity to put the TARDIS crew face-to-face with the dangers Carson had warned against in her book. It was, therefore, the first "environmentalist" Doctor Who story, a kind of gently moralistic tale — like Invasion of the Dinosaurs and The Green Death — later to be particularly favoured by Barry Letts. Though fully scripted and recorded as a four-parter, parts three and four were merged into a single episode, effectively leaving an episode on the cutting room floor. This edited material was not retained — though, some of it made it into the novelisation. |

Daleks Slyther, a guard dog for the Daleks The Daleks first started using "exterminate" on a regular basis to refer to the killing of individuals. |
The TARDIS materialises beside the River Thames in the year 2167. The world to which they emerge, however, is eerily silent and signs of decay are rife. They soon discover that the streets are patrolled by zombie-like humans, flying saucer-like craft occupy the skies and that desperate rebels are hiding below ground in the disused Underground system. But worse is still to come! The Daleks, thought destroyed by the Doctor, have invaded and enslaved humanity, having first bombarded it with cosmic storms. Why have the Daleks chosen Earth in particular? What is the significance of the giant mine in Bedfordshire to which they are shipping human slaves? And can the Doctor unite with the small band of resistance fighters to stop the Daleks before their plans wreck havoc with the Earth forever? As with The Daleks, this story was adapted into a movie entitled Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. However, it underperformed and so this was the last Doctor Who serial to be adapted for the cinema. |

The Doctor’s investigations take him to Earth, the Moon and then
to Draconia itself. He discovers that the Ogrons are employed by his sworn

| Peter Capaldi | Twice Upon a Time | 13th Christmas special on 25 December 2017 | In "Twice Upon a Time", the (First) Doctor expressed to a variation of his future companion Bill Potts that he had left Gallifrey, among other reasons, to investigate why good prevails in a universe where evil would seem to have so many advantages. As Bill reflected that none of the First Doctor's future incarnations recognized this fact, the Twelfth Doctor summarized that he and his incarnations were the reason for the universe's balance between good and evil. | ||||||
| David Tennant | Destination Skaro | Chilren in Need short | Russell T Davies, | 17 November 2023 | In a military base on the planet Skaro, a pre-mutated Davros meets with his assistant Mr Castavillian to present his new creation: a prototype Dalek. Although they're yet to choose a name. When Davros exits the scene, the TARDIS comes crashing into the base and takes off the Dalek's claw. The Fourteenth Doctor, who's still puzzled by the return of his old face, notices the damage he's caused and realises the claw belongs to the Dalek. But when calling the machine a "Dalek" and being thankful that it didn't "exterminate" him, the Doctor inadvertently gives Castavillian the ideas for both a name and a catchphrase. The Doctor soon realises that he's actually witnessing the genesis of the Daleks. He hastily swaps the broken claw for a sink plunger that he finds in the TARDIS, and tells Castavillain to pretend he was never there, before leaving. After returning, Davros approves of the plunger. | ||||
