Doctor Who: Resurrection of the Daleks

by Eric Saward; dir. Matthew Robinson (BBC, 1984)

Doctor Who_Resurrection Daleks

This serial begins with eerie promise and impressive acting/characterisation but degenerates into a confused mess, redeemed only by the pathos of Tegan’s departure. The Daleks (as so often in Doctor Who) have the intellectual sophistication of tantrum-prone toddlers with no inner monologue.
