Unlike later companions when the show started going woke ... Example... Bill Pots who had to tell you she was into girls every 5 minutes she was on screen to virtue signal. They had to write in her SJW Virtue signaling into every episode. And don't even get me started on doctor Karen, (Jodie)🤮

[@Deathlygunn]

Parker8752 He wasn't originally supposed to regenerate at the end of the first series, Eccleston was contracted to do one series, so Russell wrote two endings for the episode: one where The Doctor regenerated (If Eccleston chose to leave) and one where The Doctor would see that Rose was slowly dying after absorbing the time vortex (If Eccleston had stayed.) However Christopher Eccleston apparently didn't agree with how the show was being run and how the cast was being treated by the BBC, so he decided to leave while he had the chance.

After seeing the next few doctors and learning more about the Dalek-Doctor relationship and how terrified they are of him this scene hits even harder. This Doctor is fresh off the Time War having recently regenerated from the doctor of war. In the first episode he didn't even know what he looked like. Then the Daleks show up. After he had killed them all. After he had burnt all of Gallifrey and all the Daleks. But they kept coming back and the Timelords didn't. And this was his first encounter with an entire army of Daleks since the war. All he wanted to do was go to Earth help out, put the Time War behind him. But then the Daleks came to him not the other way around. He wants to run, to hide but they have Rose. However at the same time he doesn't want to kill again even though he hates the Daleks with all his heart. I can not even fathom the PTSD seeing them gave the Doctor. And Eccleston was magnificent in this scene especially.

[@carlrood4457]

One of the great things about the Eccleston season is how The Doctor progressed from the rage and sadness of the Time War, somewhat going through the motions of being The Doctor to actually becoming The Doctor again. The retcon of The War Doctor actually enhances it. He really didn't believe he was worthy of the name, anymore. I'd say the turning point was "The Doctor Dances". He's so desperate for the 100% win he gets there, he really brightens up.

[@christiantracey1479]

1:55 "Oh will you? That's nice. hello." LOL

[@TheOMGJames]

Two things that for me really need discussing: 1) Christopher Eccleston as the Doctor. What I love about him is how well he portrays the character just as you'd expect having just come out of the Time War. He thought he'd sacrificed his whole race, his planet, his species to save the Universe. And then the Daleks turn up. Not once, but twice. The one from Dalek was broken. It was dying. But then the Doctor encounters half a million Daleks after he has sacrificed everything. And he's fuming. Right from "oh will you now?" You get that seething undercurrent of pure undiluted rage. And that is what makes the Doctor so good. 2) The Daleks were really scary in the Eccleston Era. Because of the Doctor's reaction to them and because they kill. In Dalek, a single Dalek manages to kill countless people. In this two-parter, you see many people fall, including some characters you form real attatchments to. Not to mention when strategy says push towards the top first, they go down and massacre innocent people. It's that urge to kill combined with their credibility from the time War and the people they've killed that really makes them chilling. In Moffat, well I can't remember the last time I saw a Moffat Dalek kill someone.

[@Gamelover254]

Yeah, season 1-4 had excellent dalek stories. Even if they weren't the best, they truly showed the terror a single dalek could produce. Also, i think you're right. Has the moffat daleks actually killed ANYONE??? (:

[@Cool70sfreak]

The ninth doctor's development in this series is just the best. Everything has basically been leading up to this point and the finale, especially after Dalek. The Doctor says no, and it is the turning point for him in the series. He finally starts to overcome the scars that the Time War left him with and shows the Daleks all the defiance that he can possibly give them. No, he's not going to stand back and let them conquer Earth. No, he's not going to yield to them. No, he's not going to let them kill Rose. Honestly, this is one of the two biggest defining moments of Eccleston's Doctor in the two-part finale, the other one being "Coward, any day" during Parting of the Ways.

[@fiadhearthpony6177]

you know what I whould like one spin off episode with ecclesten were he didn't die

[@carlrood4457]

@@Cool70sfreak In Dalek, you saw his pain and rage. He begins to realize he could become what he hates most, topped with "You would make a good Dalek". Then we got The Doctor Dances where he does the one thing he's always trying to do, save everyone and probably experiences pure joy for the first time in centuries. Here, we have the culmination. He sees that what he sacrificed ultimately failed, but doesn't give in to the pain and rage this time. He is truly The Doctor again, and that's the Dalek's biggest weakness. That's who they fear.

True, they still manage to inflict apocalyptic levels of damage to the Earth and almost convince the Doctor to destroy every living thing in the solar system to stop them, but this moment shows how, for all their devious plotting, the Daleks simply did not conceive of a scenario in which the Doctor would say no to them.

I will kind of defend that with, in the old series, they had this problem too. In a story called Destiny Of The Daleks, The Doctor destroys Davros and the Daleks by throwing a hat.

Doctor: no ...

IMO, this has to be my favourite Who story of all time. I think so many things worked so well here, especially the Daleks. But I am not sure I can forgive the person who decided to show the Daleks in the Next Time trailer in Boom Town, because that would have really added to the cliffhanger. Still, I really love this story. The Daleks really acted how they I think they should be in this story. Cunning, cold, calculated and genuinely evil. That's my opinion anyway.

[@CaptainGiratina]

2:44 "I'm gonna wipe every last stinkin dalek out of the sky!" then you should have touched those two wires together to kill all the daleks when you were 4

Wouldn't that created a paradox though? Then again, its Doctor Who so anything like that can be explained away by "wibbly wobbly timey whimey...".

Well they events of Genesis of the Daleks actually did change how events played out. Although the Daleks were not destroyed, they're progress was stunted resulting in them not Invading the Earth in the first Doctor story "The Dalek Invasion of Earth"

[@kianolner3818]

I think most people can agree that this is the best cliffhanger in doctor who. Maybe even all of TV.

[@ghastly356]

this episode made the daleks truly scary, they were operating in the shadows and when they were seen, there was no head on fight - the humans just tired to avoid them as much as possible (until of course, they had to take a stand)

[@albertbowden2854]

yeh they were tired all right...

[@poletUTPMP]

It's the face of the doctor of true fear at seeing them that made me terrified.

[@chase1146]

i would have to disagree on that i think the episode that really made the daleks scary was episodes 12 and 13 in season 4

[@ghastly356]

chase1146 episode 12 was good, but episode 13 almost nullified the effect because it was so much like a pantomime

[@alicia_marie999]

1:48 cue the rage, one look at Rose is all it takes

[@DarthRushy]

"Rose?" "Yes, Doctor?!" "I'm coming to get you." And that is why these two are my favourite. They just care. Can you imagine the lame whining and snarky retorts that you'd get from the companion nowadays? This here is pure drama, honest and beautiful.

[@StickmansWrath]

"Doctor?""Give me a second, I'm doing something""What?""Getting you out of your mess."Yeah... I agree.

[@DarthRushy]

+StickmansWrath It's just the way they say it, and how they've already been through so much after 13 episodes. I love the bond they've built.

You never get stuff like this in doctor who anymore and we might never see anything like this again

It got close during Capaldi's run but now with Chibnall in charge, there's definitely nothing like this anymore. All we get now is disrespect to the legacy of the show.

[@CyberGW30]

This has got to be one of the darkest Doctor Who scenes, but also one of the best. Loved this episode to bits. Just wish we could get another episode as dark, exciting and epic as this rather than a three series brain teaser.

The most confusing moment in history to the Daleks.

[@canadian__ninja]

I like the rallying cry of exterminate they started at the end of the clip. They were genuinely terrified of what the doctor might do given they had no idea what he could do. But his confidence said something

[@EthanThomson]

"hiding it from SONAR" well yes i imagine space makes SONAR have many issues given its sound based

[@TPBHockeyGirl]

I remember vividly my reaction to The Doctor syllogism with the Daleks. I literally stood up and cheered. My heart was racing the entire time. When he told them "No." with THAT look on his face and those stone cold blue eyes...he WAS the Oncoming Storm. He was powerful, he was strong and yes, he was hotter than HELL! You can physically SEE that Rose is thinking the same thing at that moment. 2:39 Yup, Nine was one HELLUVA Doctor. I cried so hard when he regenerated. OMG, he was fantastic! Sure,I have my favourite Classic Who Doctors (Five, Four and Six), I loved Ten and I can't help but like 12 (even if Moffat's writing is rubbish) but Ten didn't have that fierceness in him that NIne had. You just knew he'd do whatever it took to keep Rose safe; he'd protect her. Again, I loved Ten but if I was facing down the Dalek fleet I'd take Nine as my Doctor over Ten any day. (Though, Ten and Donna were brilliant together. Absolutely brilliant.)

[@SupremePeteza]

+Ms.CanadaUSA 10 had some great moments, but 9 is another level up again - definitely my fave of the new Docs. 12 has shown a lot of promise - reminds me of 3 & 1 - but Moffat's writing isn't giving him a chance. The Smith guy I just don't acknowledge as canon.

[@jj_b5400]

+SupremePeteza I agree with your views on Matt Smith.

[@Daioblis]

+Ms.CanadaUSA "and yes, he was hotter than HELL! You can physically SEE that Rose is thinking the same thing at that moment" ...... Okay, so chicks _do_ dig it when you're angry. Anyway, the Tenth Doctor had it in him. You just couldn't see it because he concealed it so well. However, when he's pushed to the brink, oh you better _run_. After all, he stared down the Devil himself and sent him straight into the abyss. Simply put.... Always beware the fury of a Timelord.

[@Daioblis]

+SupremePeteza Tough luck on your part, 'cause the Eleventh Doctor - just like every other Doctor - is canon, and you're just gonna have to suck it up, 'cause if you've got any sort of respect for The Doctor, you'd accept him like every other Doctor.

[@DarthRushy]

+SupremePeteza The Doctor playing Wii is canon. The Doctor rapping is canon. The Doctor mowing the lawn is canon.

One of the Best things you can experience in life is seeing this season for the first time!

[@Axius27]

Later Who has its issues, but one addition I do like is the detail that 'Exterminate' is Dalek for emotional expression. It means that I can look at the final scene of this episode and see a bunch of Daleks in a panic over the Doctor :)

[@AlAbbasi_2007]

Christopher Eccleston might have been the Doctor for one season back in 2005, but this scene is the quintessential moment that defined his tenure as the Ninth Doctor 😍🙌🏼 The cold response & the moment the cast turned their heads said it all 💯
