DW: Return of the Daleks

Hey guys,

welcome to the bonus release of big finish – Return of the Daleks. This release was given away with the adventure ‘Year of the pig‘ as a gift to the subscriber. It is the 5th bonus release and can be bought alone now too. It is adventure with the seventh Doctor and place in the 42th century on Zeleria (which is hinting at the story ‘Planet of the Daleks’. The Doctor is traveling alone but he is referring to Ace, Hex and Mel at the start of the story.

Doctor the side character

This story is a little different than all the others. It is not just playing over a time span of severly years without time traveling it is also a story were we follow not the Doctor around. The story is about Kalendorf and Susan Mendes. This are characters that are take place in other stories of Doctor Who – like the Dalek Empire.
They are the people that should orginaze the rebelion against the Daleks. But the Daleks made a pact with them and vanished for a long time before they returned.
The Doctor is there to warn them and later he will take place in a few actions. The sixth Doctor is a Doctor that sit few things out.

Listen or not

The story is good. I like it and it is nice to listen to it. I think when you hear the other stories – at one point i hopefully will listen too – it will be even better and would be give us a better inside in the characters. But truth be told. I would buy it. I got at a gift for the subscribetion and than it is amazing. But otherwise i would not listen to it.

DW: Renaissance of the Daleks

Hey Guys,

welcome to the 93th big finish main range adventure – Renaissance of the Daleks. This adventure is with the fifth Doctor and Nyssa. They are not alone on this adventure. They have four new companions in the TARDIS everyone out of a different time. Mulberry is a knight of templar and met Nyssa in 1320. Nyssa and Mulberry are landing in Petersburg 1864 at the time of the american civil war and met Floyd. 1967 they save major alice hunniford and take her with them. The Doctor is traveling with Wilton how seems to be out of a parallel universe. 2158 a year after the Dalek invate the earth but it didn’t happen.

Big group

This is really good. So many characters in the TARDIS. They are all very different even when they all are soldiers in a way. There is so much potential in the conactions between all this characters. This is the best part of the story. All that stuff about the different times and characters. It is fun to hear them try to work together and find out what happend. There is way more potential between them than just this adventure. But sadly they will not travel together longer.

Same old

Okay, i know that every Daleks story is in away the same old story over and over again. But this one of the story i didn’t like very much. The story is in away very boring. I like the characters but everything else seems so act on the survice. So many things doesn’t make much sense to me. Also i am i not a fan of humind Daleks. So the story is not getting me.

I am really sorry for the short articles. I will give my best to change that again.

DW: Remembrance of the Daleks

Hi Guys,

i am really excited to see this episode ‘Remembrance of the Daleks’ because like the title already says it has Daleks in it. Also they promised me UNIT – I miss understood that. They mend a organisation LIKE UNIT not UNIT itself – and there is nothing i love more than them. So i have a high expectance for it.

So in the first episode we see the military that does hear what the Doctor says. Ace didn’t get warm with me and of course some Daleks. And for the first time in the classic we see that Daleks could climb stairs. But the second episode don’t is very interesting. Ace is not getting any sympathy. I hope there is coming a lot more to her character. She is brutal and a little dump.

So in the third episode you see a few things i don’t know what i should think about it. The little girl who is everywhere is working for the Daleks. It is – i don’t know – there is nothing in the episode I specially like. For me it is like they wanted to do something like UNIT, but for me they don’t succeed. There is not really a chemistry between the people and the Doctor. The character for me are to stereotype, to flat… there is totally no UNIT feeling coming up, just stupid army people. Even the ‘betrayal’ of someone don’t get me because, who cares. I don’t get any of the characters.

I hope for really good characters, I hoped for Mike, Benton, or the Brig. Characters like that make a story good. But this is for me (and of course some of the reasons are my ‘freudscher’ reading mistake) a totally disappointment.

You could make so much more out of the fight Daleks against Daleks… i am really disappointed. The only good think is that we see the dark side of the Doctor. The fourth Doctor had the order to eliminated the threat of the Daleks on the roots. But he couldn’t do it. He couldn’t do a genocide on the Daleks, even after everything they will do. But the seventh Doctor just destroyed Skaros. He destroyed a whole planet without much thought. That is a totally different Doctor that is a Doctor which is far away from the way he walked long ago. He wanted to see the galaxy, he wanted to explored the universe, than he wanted to make a differents, he wanted to save everyone and now he is becoming a warrior, he is becoming something dark. You can totally see that some day he will become the Valeyard.

DW: Revelation of the Daleks

Hi Guys,

i am really sorry if this article is badly written. I have two long days and everything hurts. So please don’t look to close at my writings, I have a little problem to concentrate. But I try my best to write this.

Sooo, it is a new story with the Daleks and Davros and I don’t know what this people are… they are..special… I don’t have a good impression of this story. But I have heard a lot of good things so I give it a chance.

The Doctor and Peri gets attacked and Peri try to save the Doctor and kills the attacker. I really like the scenes after that, because they talking before he is dying and he is forgiving her. She has a really hard time dialing with that and it is a really good scene. I hope that it not just despairs now from the story. I kinda don’t know what I should thing about the evolution of the Daleks out of human. I like the kind it seems but it remembered me of the new thing of the Daleks.

They are really interesting parts in this story again.  But it is all so superficial… it just scratched the surface. So yeah, that is what I say about. It is good and interesting some parts more than other but it never goes deeper… it much more potential.

So we will the talk next about season 23. If I am correct it is the trial of a time lord. I am really excited to see the story.

Bye 🙂

DW: About the Daleks

So guys,

i have say Dalek episodes and in the ‘Dark Eyes’ Adventures tthey take also place. So i decided that i want to talk about them. They are really one of me favorite Monsters in Doctor Who. My lovely peppershaker. Why? It is deficult to describe. The first time i say them i love them. The first Episode was Dalek in NewWho. A lonely Dalek and a existenz crisses. But i liked them a lot because of the story with the Doctor. Like the tenth Doctor said in one epiosde says. He is losing everything and they are always coming back. The Story of the Daleks and the Doctor is it what makes them so interessting.

Than i so the first Daleks Story and really liked the background story so my interesst in them are growing. They are always coming back. They are always finding new ways. What is important is that the Doctor is afraid of them. He hate them but can’t just destroy them forever. It is the relationship between Daleks and the Doctor is the really interessting thing. How different is the Doctor from the Daleks? How often have the said that the Doctor would make a great Dalek and how often have you believed that words from the Daleks? Nothing is just Black and White, or are the Daleks? This questions are what makes them perfect. It is what they could be and what the Doctor could be.

Everytime it gave story with them i am happy. Not every Episode is good, but they are the Daleks and that is what is important. But know i must also so say, that i dislike what happen with the Daleks in season 5-7 in the newWho Era. The Daleks are not afraid of woman with a weapon. Maybe they are afraid of the Doctor but they will never admit it and will never beg (if i am mistaken and it happen in a other episode before, tell me).  Also i think that all that questions and simualiers between them and the Doctor are kinda looked up. Also i hate that there are particles in the air which makes out of Humans Daleks (something simular is part of DW: Revelation of the Daleks) and the worst thing is that a Dalek is hidding in a human shape. Please? Who should that be posible?! That is so stupid and i hate it. Yeah, i am also not a fan of the humind Daleks in ‘Daleks in Manathan’ but it makes more sense than the other thing. So yeah, because of my love to the Daleks i hope that the will be not a part of season 8. Don’t make this worse… please.

So, know you know a bit more of my opinion about the Daleks and for everyone who likes the things in season 5-7. I am sorry, you will hear a lot of  complaints and worse from me if in the new season is something like that about the Daleks…
