The Master worked with the Daleks in Frontier in Space. That was pre-Davros, obviously.

I like the theory that the Fifth and Sixth Doctors end up with each other's ideal personalities. Five, on the surface, is a kind-hearted gentlemanly chap, who at the core is actually quite an aggressive and snappish person when the situation demands it. Six, on the other hand, appears as an arrogant grump on the surface whilst secretly hiding a heart of gold. This scene sums it up perfectly - Five is, to this day, the only Doctor to hold Davros at gunpoint

This theory not only makes sense but actually fits with one I always had that the regenerations of the Doctor are affects by his emotional state and the arc he goes through each season. In the case of the Fifth, most of his story took a very dark turn with him experice loss like Adric which continue through the sixth. His arrogance could be his way of dealing with this tragedies, denying his mistakes and try to avoid being so close to others, not wanting to go through the same suffering again. When he saw Peri being killed, the Doctor was probably having flashbacks of Adric going through his mind. It's after confronting Valeyard (which was said to be a amalgamation of doctor dark side of his personality) that sixth start to overcome this depression leading to the seventh Doctor, more cunning strategic mastermind. Looking that way, the Fifth to the Seventh Doctor arc is huge story about Doctor fall (5th), redemption (6th) and rebirth (7th).

I think the scariest thing about this entire scene is that for most of this scene The Doctor spends it with the gun pointed at Davros. 5 was The Doctor's kindest incarnation and this just shows how at this point things keep getting darker and darker for him. What with Adric's death, leaving a seabase full of bodies and then Tegan's departure at the end of this episode. Then afters you have him kill Kamelion, seemingly kill The Master and then he and Peri get poisoned. Such a shame that he went in such depressing circumstances.

If anything, they made the Doctor a pure innocent who loses all of that throughout his life and ends up too well experienced and troubled beyond measure.

pyridian To be fair I don’t really consider Genesis of the Daleks to be a Dalek story exactly. I think of it as a Davros story. The Daleks really aren’t the stars of Genesis, whereas they have a much stronger presence in Resurrection of the Daleks.

This story is absolutely brilliant and unequivocally dark and bleak. But Doctor Who is at its very best and is truly great when it puts the whole children's show routine in its rear view mirror and decides to pull no punches whatsoever. I love Tegan's final words to the Doctor in this episode as she departs for the final time (paraphrasing here), "it's not fun anymore. Too many good people died."

As companion departures go (although she did return for that Jim’s Fix It mini episode alongside Colin Baker) this is the best. Usually companions (the ones that aren’t killed off somehow) have some silly reason for leaving the TARDIS, e.g. a wanting to return home, Doctor’s wants them to leave, helping an alien species or falling in love with a character. Tegan’s reason is more emotional.

I agree, since being awakened on Skaro and his eventual imprisonment, Davros hasn't set foot on another planet, let alone moved at liberty upon non-Dalek soil. As far as he knows, the confines of the universe are still as inconceivable as they were during the Kaled war. In addition, he has never once seen or referred to knowing about the TARDIS. However, there is a possible explanation for this: Perhaps during his 'download' from the computer sphere in _Destiny of the Daleks_ , he learnt of the Time Lords and other races, including Earth. Hence why he is able to give such an informed (albeit typical) description of Time Lord philosophy as well as consider the possibilities available to him by capturing the Doctor's TARDIS.

He didn’t get much acting work and blamed Bolam for his career going down the Daleks time corridor.

Great scene excellent

Great scene

My first classic Doctor

Excellent great scene

"The universe is at war doctor, name one planet whose history is not littered with atrocity and ambition for empire, it is a universal way of life." Davros was a realist, growing up in the planetary total war of Skaro, one could see how he would have this philosophy. Survival and victory at all costs, where compassion was a luxury. Those that have not been through the fires of war would have a hard time understanding. however, the doctor gives a great contrast and peter Davison played the internal conflict well. Davros had to be stopped but there was only one way and that was to kill him.

It's amazing that Dirty Den doesn't even try to prevent the Doctor from trying to kill Davros.

I can relate, but he is getting better eventually he will be watchable.

Great writer

Some unseen adventure in which Time Lord regenration is explained to him or he finds out about it himself. Most likely such a story would take place between Destiny of The Daleks and this story perhaps with the fourth Doctor and Adric present at Davros' trial on Earth.

Can't wait to see if they upload the meeting between Davros and Seven in July. "UNLIMITED RICE PUDDING! Et cetera! Et cetera!"

A fascinating insight into the doctors personality. The doctor talks about the preoccupation of Davros with killing and revenge, and then states he will execute him. The rage of the time lord, critical of the Daleks lust for conquest but wants to wipe them out himself. It’s definitely a question, how the doctor compares to the daleks morally. The daleks have no morals of course so in that regard they do not see what they are doing as wrong. They are just fulfilling their programming, and expanding their knowledge.
