      I recently listened to all of the Dalek Empire audio stories, and series 1 is fantastic because Briggs is accompanied by a few other Dalek VAs. Then by series 2, it’s just Briggs and I felt so underwhelmed.
      I love Briggs, but I love hearing other takes on the voice.

    I like the raspy voices of the imperial daleks; they already have a different look to daleks from all other stories (different plunger, eye globes, etc.) so it helps to build that sense of uniqueness. Plus the whole story revolves around how they're different to the renegade daleks

    The TV Movie Dalek voices are a funny one; I kinda like them because I imagine them as being some strange, exotic kind of Dalek we've never seen before. In that framing, their wrongness almost becomes an asset.

    I am slightly emotional about David Graham (who can still do it, obviously!) being in a care home. My mum is now in a very touch and go state in a retirement home and there was something in seeing 'The Daleks' revamped (she was 26 when it came out originally and busy with my enormous and unwieldy older brother when he was a baby) that struck a chord. So much is being lost, but so much is being gained. And, of course, film is a good way of guaranteeing immortality.

    I love Death to the Daleks, I don’t get why people don’t like it either. It’s got a lot of great ideas and manages to be quite different from most Dalek stories. The music is good too, especially the music when the city is melting.
    I do like Revelation of the Daleks as well, it might not be about much, but the snowy setting and bleak score make it quite scary. I think it’s the people being mutated into Daleks that makes it so terrifying.
    Aside from Day of the Daleks, I never really noticed the huge variety in the Dalek voices until they were all lined as clips in this video. Even the variations in the same story or episode never really registered, but it is true that they are all over the place! 😅

    • @meiray
      @meiray 7 місяців тому

      Agreed on all three!
      Death to the Daleks has the Daleks being especially clever, apart from the usual few who manage to get themselves blown up. But they adapt to the energy draining problem and they navigate the Exxilon city with ease.
      Revelation is creepy as all heck, probably the best distillation of Eric Saward's penchant for writing Doctor Who to be as bleak as possible - at least here there's a fascinating morbid plot at work, entertaining theatrics, and some darkly humorous elements to it all.
      The Dalek voices in Day of the Daleks settle down and talk properly after part 1, which was surely why they still get flak. They do sound very slow and off at first, but that was the first time they'd been back in ages, so I don't begrudge them having to recalibrate after their first recording session.

    I love the Planet voices, and for some reason I really love the way the Skelton Daleks in Genesis say "exterminate" in the Thal city, that high shriek.
    I had always heard the Revelation voices were stylistic and had something to do with being human-derived so they toned down the modulation.
    And if you're not a fan of Revelation, which I wasn't for some time, I recommend looking at Dalek Bumps' discussion of it, because while the Daleks are more set dressing, it's a very good exploration of how people will behave in a society that's been infiltrated by Daleks, and it has one of the best rosters of side characters in any Who story I've seen.

I'd already become a lifelong Dalek fan, having seen the Peter Cushing 𝘋𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘬 𝘐𝘯𝘷𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘌𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘩 2150𝘈𝘋 feature film in 1966 when I was a child and my family visited England.
    I loved the 𝘋𝘢𝘺 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘋𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘬𝘴 story that I'd read via its Target Book, and when it was aired I was sorely disappointed in the Dalek voice "acting;" I'm glad to see Nick Briggs correcting that error...

The tinge of impatience when he demads "SPEAK LOUDER" and the big blunt "NO" he gives the Doctor when confronted about the human factor. He even sounds a little disappointed; they bring some short little dude before him and he sneers "So. YOU are the Doctor."

    If they ever do a remaster or special edition of Remembrance, it would probably help audience immersion to get Nick Briggs to bring some consistency to the Dalek voices. I mean, if the voices were different between factions, that would make some sense, and Briggs has enough different voices to pull that off, though it could also be interesting to have Briggs doing one faction, and another voice actor with another sound effects person or team do the other faction.

    In defence of Remembrance 1988! I liked the variety, and miss it now. I’m going to accept the criticism that the Daleks changed between shots and mid-scene, okay fair. But that episode only used GOOD choices, and they’re all good to include. That’s preferable to Modern Who that gets a bit samey-samey with too much consistency. So I did enjoy the Emperor Dalek in 2005 and the Asylum in 2012.

    My opinion on The Daleks in Colour for the 60th Anniversary is… I really enjoyed watching it so far. It was fantastic as we get to see it in colour for the very first time. I did watch the original version of the Daleks episodes from 1963. It was really enjoyable, but this version made it better based on my experience on watching it.
    It’s so good to hear both David Graham and Peter Hawkins original Dalek voices… and it’s fantastic that Nicholas Briggs gets to provide the Dalek voices again in most reused/same scenes. Three of these voices actors made the Daleks so menacing and ruthless as always. I also admire the new-series style gun effects including the sound effects of the gun (as you can hear the sounds from Genesis/Resurrection of the Daleks and some New Series too). Even the sound effects when the Daleks are moving its weapon and eye lens zooming. Even the 3D version of the Dalek City looked good with rain and all.
    Everything in the Daleks in Colour looked great. It’s FANTASTIC!!

    I recall feeling really let down by the voices in Remembrance Of The Daleks as a school kid in 1988. I even wrote my own fanzine about this questioning why ! Mad how kids "understand" more about the Daleks than do the adults who make the show! The same goes for StarWars, I guess.

      Personally I think the reasoning for the change is fine. I agree with it. But I don’t think erasing the past is the way to go forward. My preference would be to just not use Davros again (he’d sort of run his course anyway) and then make better roles for wheelchair users going forward.

    I like Briggs. My all time fave though will always be Royce Mills (RIP) and the poor chap didn't even get a mention. IMO - no one did "bat$h!t-dalek-fanatic-true-believer/if-you-fail-to-obey-me-i-will-exterminate-you-and-everything-in-orbit-OF-you!!!!" better. I didn't find the style "whiney-school-boyish" at all. There was just something so . . . high pitched, determined, intense and absolutely dedicated about his Dalek portrayal.
    I've always wondered what it would sound like if Briggs gave it a crack.

      I also wonder how he felt about Davros getting retconned. "I, Davros" was fantastic. I was really hoping it would stay on as canon as they've done with other Big Finish stories on the TV series.

    The inconsistancy in Remembrance is even worse than depicted here. The dalek that hovers up the stairs changes to Royce Mills mid sentence after Roy Skelton says "you are an enemy of the daleks!" It then changes over to Royce Mills to say "you will be exterminated!"

Plus it feels like a slight against the original performers, but that's just me. Also wish he had covered the Peter Cushing films just as a point of interest.

    This is the first time I've seen some new effects in a story as old as Day Of The Daleks. Cannot say I'm too keen. I can appreciate them wanting to do something better than just turning the screen blue and negative each time a Dalek blasts somebody, and maybe updating it to the same kind of effect they had by the end of the original series makes sense, but more than that is jarring, and that skeleton effect is over the top.

    Great interview, but I'm a little surprised, given how thoroughly Nick went through the stories and dalek voice artists that Royce Mills doesn't seem to get mentioned once. Every other dalek voice does, but not Royce. He's the only one in all three 80s dalek stories, and I thought he was quite good, he was a lot better than Brian Miller in Resurrection. Seems a shame Nick skipped over him.

    I don't know whether anyone's noticed, but it is a fan tendency to concoct lists. The list of 'Best Dalek Voices' is hotly contested and is analogous to one of those 'Who is the greatest rock vocalist, dude?' things you often see out here on the interweb. For my generation - and probably that of my brothers, who are pushing 60 (from both directions) - the winner is likely to be Roy Skelton. But it is the dedication, or even obsession, of Nick Briggs that has enabled him to delineate all forms of Dalek voice. It sounds ridiculous written down. It's like Kenneth Williams doing all the voices in Willo The Wisp. But that's not a light skill.
