The Daleks 7 - The Rescue

Episode 7 amps up but then it has to given it's the conclusion. We even get the classic countdown.

So the Doctor says he was a pioneer amongst his own people. Retcon into Lungbarrow anyone?

Having now managed to "get through" The Daleks it's amazing to think it spawned the craziness that was Dalekmania and was instrumental in making Doctor Who a household name. It's slow and clunky but if we compare it to television at the time it seemed fresh and exciting.

Over 50 years in the future it definitely has more relevance as a historical document than a piece of entertainment. But what Nation did best was action and action has moved on A LOT in the last 51 years.
