      This idea is also explored a little in the Big Finish “War Master” series - the Master goes back in time, kills Davros and becomes the creator of the Daleks, programming them to be utterly obedient to him. But in the end, the Daleks’ innate sense of superiority won over and they turned on him for not being a Dalek. That’s just what Daleks do, I guess.

      Director David Maloney was taking an ENORMOUS risk with that. It could have come over as ridiculous and ended the episode on a silly note. Instead, it came over as terrifying and unforgettable. This is the only Dalek I've ever heard do that insane glissando with its voice --"UniiiiVERRRRRRSSSE!!!!"" -- and when actress Karen Gillan imitated one, that's how she did it. I suspect there's someone who watched that fourth wall break from behind the couch when they were young. (Wouldn't have been in the premiere showing, though -- she's not old enough!)

    One of the finest scenes in the show's history - there's a reason as to why Genesis is so highly regarded. It's a neat counterpoint to the scene where the Doctor gets Davros to reveal his insane megalomania ("such power would set me among the gods"). But here it is revealed that Davros has perpetuated himself only too well - the Daleks are even more megalomaniacal and ruthless than he is, and _they_ regard _him_ in the same way that _he_ regarded everyone else. Davros effectively wiped out the Kaleds as they were in his way and interfering with is plans, and useless to him. And that's exactly what the Daleks do. There is also an irony in that Davros appeals to the Daleks pity - which they don;t have, because earlier in the story Davros himself ordered genetic changes to make them creatures without conscience or moraility (or as Davros calls them, "weaknesses")
    "These men are scientists. They can help you. Have pity!"
    "Pi-ty? This word is not registered in my vocabularly bank. EXTERMINATE!"
    Right at the last moment Davros realises he has created an uncontrollable monster - too late.

      @richardgregory3684 2 роки тому +22

      @@minicle426 Yes, although it's forgivable. I always took it to mean that "pity" was a completely alien concept to the Daleks - they are quite literally engineered to not have it. So the Dalek has never encountered it as a concept or even a word - so looks it up in it's onboard computer. And of curse, Davros carefully made sure "pity" isn;t in there. It's rather like _1984_ where The Party is removing words on the premise that one way to eliminate ideas of freedom or whatever is to simply not even have a word for it. You're right though, the Daleks became steadily more robotic and apparently driven by merciless logic than anything else, whereas their earlier incarnations they are most definitely "living, bubbling lumps of hate" and quite capable of expressing emotion and acting irrationally. I neve rliked the idea of Destiny of the Daleks where they are locked in an impasse with the Movellans (who really are robots) because they are both totally reliant on their combat computers. Of course it's really an excuse to have them dig up Davros who was immensely popular but I did not like the idea that the Daleks could not introduce an element of illogic or intuition. As they have done so plenty of times in the past.

Limitations that he wouldn't have had to program if he had had more time to fully develop the creatures.

    Fun fact: There was a deleted scene from this episode that foreshadowed Davros' return. After the Dalek that exterminates Davros gives its "supreme power of the universe" speech, the camera cuts to the apparently dead Davros and does a close up on his life support chairs' control panel. We then see a small blue light on the panel turn on, indicating that Davros' life support system is still operational and thus he may still be alive. Terry Nation wrote this scene to avoid repeating his mistake of killing off the Daleks at the end of their first story and was unhappy that it was cut. Despite this, Davros still returned.

      Thats cool, but since time is kinda a wobbly wobbly Gordians knot, of sorts. The Davros we see in the future, could actually be his past. Once he dies he sent a message back in time to himself to go to the future and try differently. So we can see davros again and again, and he can die again and again. Once he dies In the future it closes a loop.
      Though I very much dislike the new seasons, all the retcons are killer. The doctor is the reason why davros exists, I feel one day the doctor is going to go back in time and destroy Gallifrey, or make sure they never develop past the stone age. So that nothing in the show ever happened. Just like Hitch hikers guide to the galaxy. The doctors life causes more problems that he has to solve. Without the timelords, what would still happen? No time war, no billions being killed
      No exterminate

    It's a brilliant performance by Michael Wisher as Davros. With his face completely covered by an expressionless mask, most of his body hidden by the chair or the coverall clothing and also immobile save for one arm, his voice distorted and rendered mechanical, yet Wisher manages to put enormous emotion into his lines, to project Davros' incredible force of personality. As the novelisation says "Davros should have been pitiful. Instead, he was terrifying", describing the burning intellect and personality contained within the shattered shell of a man - Wisher brings Davros to life perfectly. Certainly one of the finest performances in the show's history and absolutely one of the prime reasons this story is so highly regarded.

    Watching this, I can't help but think how Davros basically signed his own death warrant when he created the Daleks:
    1) He programmed them to regard all other lifeforms as inferior, to be enslaved/and or exterminated. As he's not a Dalek, he automatically falls into that category.
    2) He programmed them to protect themselves against all threats to their "superiority". As their creator, this makes him a threat to their existence.
    3) He removed all positive emotions, then appeals to one: compassion/mercy.

      The point being made is that it is Davros himself who ordered the Daleks to be genetically engineered to be like that; when the scientists in charge objects, that it would create defects, creatures without moraility of conscience, Davros says that's exactly what he wants, to remove "weaknesses". He's appealing to the Daleks pity - they have none, because he himself made them that way.

    Ah, yes. Despite the fact that there have been no shortage of different actors who have played the part of our beloved, Doctor. For me, Tom Baker, is and will always be "DOCTOR WHO"!
    He was playing the Doctor, when I first discovered the show, as a boy, back in the '70s. In a little, rural, dairy town, in Pennsylvania. It was aired on P.B.S. most weekends, along with a small assortment of other British TV shows.
    I can't help it. When I think of, The Doctor, I'm seeing that hat, that coat, and that ridiculously long, floppy scarf, which I love! ... and the mighty, loyal, and heroic "K-9" too, of course!
    My hat's off to you, Tom! I'm a fan for life.

    They need to write stories like this again in the new series. Make the daleks scary again.

    I saw a fan theory that says *that* Dalek goes on to become the Emperor we see in Evil of the Daleks and Parting of the Ways. Don't know how realistic that is, but I think it's cool.

    This is like how Megatronus Prime (The Fallen), would turn on his master Unicron. To form the Decepticons, while taking Megatron as his 2nd in command, long before he was put in charge.

    Absolutely fantastic end to the best ever story of Dr Who... This was the exact moment when the Dr Who story became " REAL " science fiction, and I think that all the actors, and producers, etc, knew that this was the very best episode, even as they were making it... IMO the world wouldn't see anything as good as this, until the arrival of Star Wars, etc...

    Made when Dr Who had good story lines and good characters in them, and was made to *entertain*.

    Emerson Lake and Palmer, Karn Evil 9, 1973:
    "I am all there is!"
    "NEGATIVE - PRIMITIVE - LIMITED - I LET YOU LIVE"
    "But I gave you life!"
    "WHAT ELSE COULD YOU DO?"
    "To do what was right!"
    "I'M PERFECT! ARE YOU?"
    I am convinced Terry Nation had that album playing as he wrote GENESIS OF THE DALEKS.

    It was inevitable they would turn on him in the end. Someone should make a TV series or a film about this.

      @@Benjiesbeenbetter. Yes, I have often thought that the BBC ought to make a completely separate, ( not involving Dr Who ) hour long film, showing enough of the life of Davros, to explain clearly... Exactly how he came to be in the ' state ' in which we see him now... It would help to explain even more about the origins of our favorite villain

    Just how sinister is Davros in this his first series. He later came to resemble an aging seaside end of pier drag act.
