Absolutely, after listening to the Gallifrey Adventures, and Romana's (And Leela's) Survival skills are impeccable.
HEH, wasn't defending her prior stories on the show. Still, with the shell of the character (A female Time Lord Dr Frankenstein), I'm sure good stories could be written for her.
Nah. Dalek was good - easily one of the highlights of new Who, and would probably give the overrated runaround Genesis a run for its money in my esteem - but all that bloody rubbish about time travellers and DNA doesn't bear scrutiny and that American bloke was a shite character.
It's a terrible story, is it? And why's that then?
CLASSIC.
that would be so cool. A Dalek with a heart and a taste for adventure. Dunno what skimpy clothes they could where, maybe a more seductive version of the utility belt thing in Victory of the Daleks last year, like a man-kini design, or just put nipples on every bump with a multi cup bra.
They do have breasts...wait, I mean, Dalek bumps
Yes it is, no they don't, no it isn't, everyone loves a bit of violence, and if the relatively low Doctor involvement bothers you then I suppose you disliked Blink as well. Revelation is a brilliant story, as intricate as Androzani (if not Kinda). It's quite a brilliant piece, populated with many engaging yet grostesque characters, and it's easily the best use of Davros. A mad twisted man getting people to eat their own families and laughing like a loon. Revelation's a classic.It's a terrible story, is it? And why's that then?
For one thing it's more about Davros than the Daleks, the sets look terrible, the acting is prety bad and the violence is rarely needed in most of the scenes. And worse still the Doctor is pretty much useless in the story and I could've done without the DJ. Orcini is the only cahracter in the story that I remotely cared about since he was the only one with any real depth to him.

In any event it's more like a French slasher horror movie than a Dr. Who story. We never see hands get blasted off or multiple stabbing on the show really ever since they introduced Davros the Dalek stories were more about him than the Daleks themselves and there was still no explaination for how he survived Resurrection.
The Visitation over Revelation? Really?
Yeah everbody LOVES violence I guess that includes Mary Whitehouse.
IMO Blink is overrated and Eric Saward really only wrote one really good Dr. Who story and that was The Visitation, it's more than alittle difficult to defend either of his Dalek stories or Timelash for that matter. Some people liked some people didn't. But it's not a great story in my mind.
