Rememberance of the Daleks homages

[Doctorwhovian]

Anybody notice that we're getting a lot of that this season?

The Witch's Familiar basically has the same conclusion as the story. The Doctor basically 'gives' the Daleks/Davros time lord technology (In the original story, Hand Of Omega, in this, regeneration energy)-which then backfires on them; and it was the Doctor's plan along. Even Davros's line, "This cannot be correct!" is similar.

Then there's "Time will tell, always does". In the original story, this was his answer to Ace's question: "We did good, didn't we?"
Considering that the Omega/Skaro thing in retrospect-according to RTD, was one of the first real acts of the Time War, maybe it's Moffat hinting that perhaps Asilder's ressurection (and the Doctor's cursing of the Time Lords?) will have bad consquences down the line.

Genesis Of The Daleks was the start of the Time War, the Time Lords sent the Doctor to try and prevent the creaton of the Daleks.

We saw the heavy weapons Dalek--and even an out-take from Remembrance of the 7th.

So this Davros got back out of that fake Emporer shell we saw in Remembrance, and not evolving into the Empoere we saw destroyed by the 2nd Doctor--that was what I was hoping for.

The Emperor in Evil was a Dalek Prime, not Davros.

Looks like the Daleks rescued him from his escape pod but didn't do anything after that due to the outbreak of the time war. He fought in a fleet battle before being rescued by Dalek Caan.

Tough as old boots, and only slightly charismatic.

 

[Marsden]

I still can't believe he had eyes!

Maybe he had them "donated" from one of the Humanoid prisoners just before Sarf got the Doctor to come back.

I wonder where they got the chair.

 

[Mister Spock]

The best reference I thought was the Doctor going undercover as the school custodian in The Caretaker.

DOCTOR: Good afternoon.

HEADMASTER: And you would be?

DOCTOR: The Doctor, and you?

HEADMASTER: I'm the headmaster here. Doctor, eh? Well you're a bit over qualified for the position, but if you would like to leave your particulars and references.

DOCTOR: References?

HEADMASTER: You are here for the job of school caretaker?
