Ok here goes:
Daleks in Manhatten
- Lights, music, showtime oh and a bit of love interest.
- Oh what was that rushing past the screen? ;)
- Oh look a great big man pig. This Lazlo guy's lucky it's just a pig slave and not a weeping angel as we now know they were in New York around this time.
- Martha "where are we?" Nope it's not New York, it's actually Cardiff (the team cheated by filming against a wall that looked like the wall underneath the statue of liberty.
- Oh Martha just made a valid point, New New York to (old) New York.
- What's Hooverville? A Doctor Who convention in Derby isn't it? ;)
- People living in poverty due to the recession, would be interesting if they made another episode like this now!
- 'How can they build the world's tallest building yet people are starving?' Exactly!!
- Ooh love that art deco light that lining up perfectly with the Dalek stalk. Brilliant.
- Yay Dalek. Daleks are always best when they're being sneaky.
- Missing people, the plot thickens.
- Dalek panels on top of the Empire State Building?
- This Mr Diagonal or whatever his name is is a bit of an arse.
- Yeah more Daleks. His loyalty will be rewarded by Daleks? Hmm don't like the sound of that.
- Nice close up of the black Dalek there.
- Dalek Sec, yay the Cult of Skaro are back.
- Basically RUN!! lol love it.
- Hauuns in the air and no funnny bizzniss. Dodgy accent.
- lol Lazlo's not a pig. You sure about that Tullulah?
- Oh dear Martha's pining over the Doctor. Why did they have to go down this route again?
- Liking all this Dalek experiment business.
- This whole musical performance is a bit unnecessary.
- Skaro! The Doctor's worked it out.
- Why is it she doesn't recognise his voice but she recognise him with a pig's snout?
- Like how Martha doesn't know what a Dalek is.
- lol Dalek Sec looks like a washing machine on full spin!
- Human Dalek - Interesting.
Time for a quick break before the next episode. So far so good. Not quite 'Dalek' or 'Bad Wolf/Parting of the Ways' but so far one of the better Dalek stories in New Who.
Evolution of the Daleks
- Ok here we go again. No pre title action just a catch up on the last episode.
- Emergency temporal shift? What all 4 of them? To the exact same point and place in time?
- Oh oh the Dalek's feeling humanity.
- Now that Dalek Sec is no longer in his Dalek case does that mean he's no longer connected to the hive (see Asylum of the Daleks)? Bit of a weakness for a Dalek don't you think? As well as losing the protective shell which Davros designed for them to survive the Kaled/Thal war. Not much of an evolution. The only positive things I can think of for a Dalek would be that they now have little Dalek bits and could reproduce.
- Putting his gun down and trying to reason with a Dalek, big mistake.
- EXTERMINATE! lol That was pretty funny after that moving speech.
- Daleks never change their minds. They never seem to be able to kill The Doctor when they get the chance to either. They're a bit like Bond villains in that sense.
- Ooh this looks like a scene out of The Matrix or the blood bank in Blade.
- So the final experiment is to wipe the minds of humans and fill it with Dalek ideas. So what was the point in the Human/Dalek hybrid?
- Ah right, so they need a Human/Dalek hybrid's DNA to re-write the DNA of the human captives.
- Davros was wrong? Why do they go back to him at the end of series 4 then? Saying that the other Daleks just disagreed with him, maybe he inspired Dalek Khan to pop back into the Time War and get Davros.
- So now this Human/Dalek hybrid is redundant as they're changing the DNA structure now Dalek SEC has decided they need to be more human.
- Surely if the DNA feed is now 100% Dalek it will change how the humans will look?
- Looks like the Daleks have finally cottoned onto the fact that Sec is now redundant. Could've told them that 10 min ago.
- Why is Dalek Sec all chained up? The Daleks gone soft in their old age? Exterminate him FFS.
- Bit confused, how does a solar flare affect lightening? Also lightening hitting a rod to generate enough power to feed advanced technology, deliberate nod to Back to the Future? Probably not.
- So how many sonic screwdrivers is that now? He bust one in 'Smith and Jones' and has just dropped another.
- Ok so The Doctor can survive a bolt of lightening (strengthened by solar flares) but he can't survive a fall from a satelite dish or a little bit of radiation (although he can shake it into his left shoe?).
- "I am a Dalek", you sure about that?
- This whole Daleks as masters and Dalek Sec in chains is a bit BDSM. Kinky Daleks!
- I like how the Daleks only move they're heads and eye stalks rather than wobbling around all over the place like they're on speed.
- Oh you're not a Dalek now. Make your mind up!
- Why didn't the Dalek just exterminate The Doctor just then instead of shooting at the Dalek-Human who stood up to them.
- Especially when they can just kill on mass like that.
- Nice parallel with the Dalek and The Doctor there, just 1 in the universe.
- Just thought is the guy playing Frank, Andrew Garfield from The Amazing Spiderman?
- Just IMDB'd him, yes it is.
- Yep The Doctor will see that Dalek again.
Well that wasn't too bad. It had it's flaws, the whole thing with the DNA was a bit silly and confusing as well as pointless but it wasn't the worst episode. It's not even the worst Dalek episode (That's probably Victory of the Daleks). Not a big fan of the next episode, should be interesting to see how I interpret/enjoy it this time around.
