The first speech between the Doctor and the Dalek is a perfect allegory for the Nazis vs the British wartime spirit. It's a wonderful little time bubble. The allegory continues in other ways, such as the radio broadcasts, people hiding underground etc.
Considering when this was made, it does indeed look epic, except for the battle at the end which really is pathetic. Ah well, action is clearly not this director's strong point. The pacing works really well too.
