I'm surprised the events of "Daleks in Manhattan" and "Evolution of the Daleks" aren't on there. How many people did the Daleks abduct for their 'final experiment'? How many were turned into pig slaves? How many killed just for getting in the way?
Probably a few thousand, which is small fry for the Daleks. Plus there's the factor of Dalek Sec at least trying to move past the whole Dalek purity supremacy thing.
@@Bellezzasolo I get your point, but it was also the creation of a whole new species and a genocide of that species. Genocide is often a topic that draws the Doctor's ire - he even says it to Dalek Caan - "I've just seen one genocide. I won't cause another." The events of that two-part story are so significant that the Doctor was willing to work with the Daleks _TWICE_ - once with Dalek Sec to create the more human hybrids, and then again at the end with Dalek Caan to avoid any more bloodshed.
The Season 1 two-part finale was pretty devastating. The Daleks randomly picked out probably millions of humans to face an inevitable death in a well known TV game show which was then watched by everyone on planet Earth. They also subjected the Controller to years of torture and killed her once she told the Doctor about the Daleks. Basically everybody on The Game Station died during their attack and possibly thousands more if they had managed to reach the Earth. They basically caused the 9th Doctor's regeneration because Rose needed to come back, help and save him. But overall the Daleks are definitely the evilest thing in the Whoniverse.
And the most atrocity of that 2 part finale is using people's bodies, converting them to create more Daleks, as the Emperor explained. Basically most of the new Daleks were dead people. This happened way before Oswin.
Having been a young Californian living in England in the 60's I developed an early appreciation of The Doctor and the Daleks, and when I returned to the U.S. I remember trying to explain how awesome they and the Doctor were, and it wasn't till the early 70's that Jon Pertwee first appeared as The Doctor on U.S. television, (which is why I suspect he, and not my "first Doctor" is my favorite (apologies to William Hartnell and Peter Cushing, both of whom I'm a big fan of, but...) and I was able to share an appreciation of the Who-verse. As always thank you so very much for the video. To me the worst (maybe - biggest impression certainly) are the Daleks of "Doctor Who and the Daleks" (1965) and "Daleks' Invasion Earth 2150 A.D." (1966). Perhaps because those were the first Doctor Who episodes that I could pull up on video. (I was fortunate to have a father who worked at the company that created VHS - Ampex.)
I get they believe in purity, but you’d think they change their design due to how limiting it is. The proposed spider leg design from the 1996 movie’s follow up could make them more lethal.
Doesn't the "purity" thing only refer to the gooey little alien inside the metal suit? I agree with you, I think a new style of Dalek would be awesome to see
The Daleks invaded Earth in the 22nd century twice in stories shown on TV. Day of the Daleks was their second, more successful, attempt, from which they launched their attack on the 20th century.
I'm surprised The Apocalypse Element didn't get a mention- where the Daleks crippled and stole the time travel technology of multiple races, invade gallifrey, and succeed in detonating the entire Seriphia galaxy filled with inhabited worlds in order to invade it once the planets reformed
One I'd mention was the development and usage of temporal weapons in Engines of War. These weapons didn't just kill people but wiped them out from history. Anyway, this is probably my favourite Who Culture video yet as it accounts for expanded media as much as onscreen material.
Totally noticed your nail polish matched your sweater! You are a great host and I still think you kinda sound like Julie Andrews which is definitely not a bad thing
Even if the daleks used the reality bomb wouldn't have worked cos I'm betting marvel , dc and several others would've survived and then the heroes and villains would come over and destroy them
How about using children's imaginations for a potential battle strategies in their battle computers? (Remembrance of the Daleks). We all know that children can be evil little sods! Lol.
dooms day was a good one.,Daleks in Manhattan" and "Evolution of the Daleks, they had their moments,plus trying to wipe out the tharls on skaro as well
Wait if the time lords were wipped out before the time war began the time controller would not won't to destroy and on the quest on destroying the time lords the wipping out of the time lords in the first place so the time controller couldn't even finish his plot because it will make the grandfather paradox or just a paradox
I'm amazed you never mentioned the fact the daleks exterminated the doctors great grandson Alex and were more of less responsible for the death of Lucie Miller in your no1 spot
In "Genesis of the Daleks", The Doctor says that the first Dalek invasion of Earth was in the year 2000... Hmmm... I must've missed it... ;-P Granted, it was 1975, so they were giving themselves 25 years, and they probably didn't think the show would outlive it...
"criminally short-lived 8th"? How about "THANKFULLY short-lived 8th"? He could be wiped from existence as far as I'm concerned (along with the 6th). Hey, there's a story idea. Take them out together! "Death of the Doctors"!
I have a theory what if when Clara is turned into a Dalek what if that is after she spent time and travelled with the 12 doctor because we know she survived after dying for reasons I’ve already forgotten but so what if after that she finds her way into the Dalek asylum and then goes through the horrific conversion or however you pronounce it so then she becomes a Dalek
Shouldn't the creation of the Nightmare Child be on this list? I'd imagine creating an all-consuming lovecraftisn abomination that destroys without discrimination is a pretty heinous action itself
This is blasphemy do not disrespect Dalek time Controller is supreme worship him worship him worship himmmmm!!! Lol the Daleks are my favorite part of Doctor Who and the Dalek Time Controller is my favorite Dalek Edit on entry 1: SOUTH AMERICA THE DALEKS GO TO FAR THAT’S WHERE MY GIRLFRIEND LIVES TO ALL DALEKS THIS MEANS WAR YOU’VE MADE A RELENTLESS ENEMY
In Doctor Who everything is equally canon as there's no high ruler of the BBC putting out an official list of what's canon and what's not. Also, Big Finish companions are mentioned onscreen in Night of the Doctor.
@@jellybabiesarecool4657 Well the Night of the Doctor is the only instance, where parts of Big Finish are ever mentioned, or shown. And NotD is canon, so ... not really sure. Big Finish often contradicts the tv show in some ways, some more, some less. But honestly even the show itself sometimes contradicts with itself. So yea. Hard to say. I personally consider it non canon, but still amazing stories. I'm fine with it that way. Because what isn't specifically mentioned or shown on the big (smaller) screen, didn't really hapen in the prime reality. Kinda like Turn Left, where you see the events of several episodes back but without the Doctor. Alternate realities. So Big Finish is that. Awesome adventures of the various Doctor's regenerations, companions and friends, but not entirely canon in the TV show. But that's my view, If you consider Big Finish canon, that's your thing. Be true to yourself, don't let anyone to decide for you.
She's still a version of Clara, that was inserted in the time stream and became "real", the Doctor, even Rory and Amy interacted with her all the time. Before the change that Clara entering the Doctor's life/time stream brought, there probably was someone taken and converted into a Dalek, who Clara took over as Oswin. Otherwise what would be the purpose of Oswin being a Dalek? Clara's splinter could manifest as another simple Clara copy of that time period, like the one on Gallifrey, or those chasing the other Doctor's regenerations. So that terrible Dalek conversion still happened, eventhough it may not be originally Clara's conversion.
@@Croftice1 I always looked at the Clara splinters as only existing in that moment for as long as she needs to be in that area. At least going by how it played out for her in asylum of the daleks. And I could see it as she takes the place of someone else in that moment. And maybe even have the Clara that was the companion be a splinter too with her role being saving him from grief, and Clara would stay dead thanks to that damn bird, and she wouldn’t be able to say “she’s entitled to her past”. But then again series 9 was kinda all over the place. But Clara should’ve never been given a Tardis.

The 10 Worst Things the Daleks Have Ever Done:
#10: Genocide
#9: Genocide
#8: Genocide
#7: Genocide
#6: Genocide
#5: Genocide
#4: Genocide
#3: Genocide
#2: Genocide
#1: Genocide
And looking silly
It's part of their programming by Davros.
#11 Being designed with no volume control.
I get they believe in purity, but you’d think they change their design due to how limiting it is. The proposed spider leg design from the 1996 movie’s follow up could make them more lethal.

BIG down for not including "Remembrance of the Daleks." They stuck a little girl inside their battle computer.
Turning humans into half pig monsters should be up there. As well as Dalek Karn slaughtering all the human/dalek hybrids. *
They really are scary critters.

I’ve often believed the Daleks are at the best in Big Finish. So glad Ellie from WhoCulture listed a few of them!
One I'd mention was the development and usage of temporal weapons in Engines of War. These weapons didn't just kill people but wiped them out from history. Anyway, this is probably my favourite Who Culture video yet as it accounts for expanded media as much as onscreen material.
Amazing and one other message ALL HAIL THE DALEK TIME CONTROLLER

I love you matt smith
@@doctorgilham2030 Thank you, praise me!
You should do a list on the other villians like cyber man or the sontarins
Even if the daleks used the reality bomb wouldn't have worked cos I'm betting marvel , dc and several others would've survived and then the heroes and villains would come over and destroy them
How about using children's imaginations for a potential battle strategies in their battle computers? (Remembrance of the Daleks). We all know that children can be evil little sods! Lol.
I could die happy if i could find my own version of Ellie over here in the states. It's hard to find someone even close to being as beautiful.
Surely the first monsters of Doctor Who... Are the humans!
The Dale's invaded Earth 3 times. The second time was mentioned in Day of The Daleks. Granted it was ultimately undone. However it's still cannon.
The 8th Doctor did have to deal with the Daleks, just wasn't on screen as he was the Doctor at the start of the Time War.
You should cover the river big finish eps they're actually really good
dooms day was a good one.,Daleks in Manhattan" and "Evolution of the Daleks, they had their moments,plus trying to wipe out the tharls on skaro as well
Why do so many people mention plot holes w the reality bomb in Journey's End? What have I missed?
Wait if the time lords were wipped out before the time war began the time controller would not won't to destroy and on the quest on destroying the time lords the wipping out of the time lords in the first place so the time controller couldn't even finish his plot because it will make the grandfather paradox or just a paradox
Next you should do top 10 torchwood episodes even the Sarah Jane adventures. And the daleks appeared in the audio stories.
💙 from South of France
I'm amazed you never mentioned the fact the daleks exterminated the doctors great grandson Alex and were more of less responsible for the death of Lucie Miller in your no1 spot
No mention of the TWO Peter Cushing Doctor Who/Dalek movies (the second one co-starred Bernard Cribbins)?
I’m sure they’ll top these.
How do you make these videos so great ?
Clearly, you don't know much about production.
RIPROC PRODUCTIONS
In "Genesis of the Daleks", The Doctor says that the first Dalek invasion of Earth was in the year 2000...
Hmmm... I must've missed it... ;-P
Granted, it was 1975, so they were giving themselves 25 years, and they probably didn't think the show would outlive it...
I paused at 8:29, she looks like she's having a stroke.
What about the time a Dalek puppet got Matt smith to meet at the dying plant of Skaro to trick him to helping the daleks destroy the asylum?
Hardly the "worst" thing they've done.
Them going insane and converting people selecting them randomly should be on here
Exist. They should have been destroyed by the Kaleds.
If you squint and concentrate your heart she almost looks bald Hott
The Daleks didn't need to snap to wipe out life in the universe, but they did need bigger stones.
Good work gooddd
Davros gets cyberbullied lmaooo
"criminally short-lived 8th"? How about "THANKFULLY short-lived 8th"? He could be wiped from existence as far as I'm concerned (along with the 6th). Hey, there's a story idea. Take them out together! "Death of the Doctors"!
You look like a older max from stranger things 😂
Who is this "doctor", though? Is he that fleshbag that's always talking to the real star of the show: Handles?
WILL YOU QUIT INCLUDING BIG FINISH?!! IF IT IS NOT ON SCREEN THEN IT IS "NOT" CANON.
I have a theory what if when Clara is turned into a Dalek what if that is after she spent time and travelled with the 12 doctor because we know she survived after dying for reasons I’ve already forgotten but so what if after that she finds her way into the Dalek asylum and then goes through the horrific conversion or however you pronounce it so then she becomes a Dalek

Tell me more

I don’t really like Asylum of the daleks at all
ok
I can’t take what happened to Oswin that seriously since she technically never existed since she’s a splinter of Clara
She's still a version of Clara, that was inserted in the time stream and became "real", the Doctor, even Rory and Amy interacted with her all the time.
