The Daleks Turn on Davros! | Genesis of the Daleks | Doctor Who 

>surprised pikachu face °~:o

He was the chief scientist on Skaro

He was half dalek so they only half killed him.

Actually if you read the Dalek comics from the 1960's - I'm 65 - you will see the Dalek emperor is gold in colour and is shorter then the regular Dalek and has a large spherical upper section.

@@Puzzoozoo that’s just the casing I’m talking about the actual Dalek Mutant.

No, that was another emperor, I could do a full nerd reason why but you don't need that lol. This Dalek became the emperor that died in Evil Of The Daleks. According to the book and some other things. The time war emperor came about after Remembrance Of The Daleks as Davros called himself emperor briefly but thought he was above that later on.

@@lonestarwolfentertainment7184 what does « Dalek Mutant » mean ?

@@FlagadossSupreme the tentacle creature inside the shelling.

You can’t keep a mad scientist down.

@@stevenredpath9332 Dr Eggman: Woah hohohoho! You can say that again!

He literally did in subsequent episodes. It led to a "Dalek Civil War" that lasted the rest of the classic series.

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.

That's how Revelation of the Daleks and Remembrance of the Daleks kicks off

he is the ultimate self insert lol

And anger

Later on the last Dalek in the universe would make the same plea to Eccleston's Doctor: "HAVE PITY...!"

Riding the mix knob on the Moog MF-102 Ring Modulator

And suddenly feels pity for his scientists. Too little too late

Ironic how he asked them for pity when he bred them to only know hate, as for their other emotion fear...well they had that engrained in them from their experience with The Doctor.

He should've asked for mercy.

Unfortunately the vocabulary bank line does indicate where Terry Nation started treating the Daleks more like robots.

@@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.

@@richardgregory3684 I always took the more limited and robotic behaviour of post-Genesis Daleks as a result of the Doctor interfering here. He didn't stop the Daleks, but he forced Davros to advance his schedule, so the creatures were not finished and still operated with the limitations Davros programmed into them for the assault on the Thal dome. Limitations that he wouldn't have had to program if he had had more time to fully develop the creatures.

I always thought it was giving a soliloquy to the audience.

Great info

Love these tidbits of information. Thank you.

I vaguely remember an episode where davros is found covered in cobwebs and dust

@@goldenboi7685 that was Destiny of the daleks. The next dalek story with a newly regenerated romana.

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

Daleks: Look at me, look at me- we're the captain now.

The daleks are cummunist

​@@tinnytyDaleks: "You will be Exterminated!"

Yup Davros didn’t put it into their vocabulary ;)

Not until the 9th Doctor "Have piity" To which he responded, rightly so: "Why? You never did"

It was highlighted that he has a specific blind spot when the Doctor described a virus that was indestructible and perfect in reproducing itself. Davros said he would release such a virus.

This gets me is why wouldn't Davros think he'd be a target? The reason I can think is that since Dalek cores come from altered Kaled DNA then they would see them as sister-species and not hurt them.

Well done, you understood the story. What makes you think no one else did?

@@wdcain1 Because he's an ego driven megalomaniac. The idea that he might not be In Charge probable never even occurred to him.

@@markfox1545 I think it's called fansplaining.

LOLS *spits up coffee while laughing*

I used it the last time I got laid off as security was tossing me out of the building.

@@CaptApril123😂😂😂😂

@@CaptApril123😂😂😂😂

for real, I remember being frozen in fear when I first saw that scene

​@CaptApril123 no way?! Me too!!

Sounds a bit like the Borg Queen, or even Seven of Nine talking....!

and the guy from Terror of the Autons

Also Kalik from Carnival of Monsters

So committed to the part he wore a paper bag over his head during rehersals.

@@camsmith4433 And during the Wilderness Years as the Controller in The Stranger: Summoned By Shadows, Allenby in The Airzone Solution and Robar in Shakedown: Return Of The Sontarans.

@@BarryLetts379 Also as the ghost of Sgt. Benton’s father in Wartime.

It's like he was an ultra powerful and equally as evil and egotistic incarnation of Stephen Hawking and Einstein or Tesla fused together, had he gone down a Hitler like path somehow

Dont seem so terrifying to me. I could take him in a bar fight.

Excellent characterization of Michael Wisher's performance. Both very well done.

It took some time but eventually the Daleks were able to upgrade themselves to the point where they could rival the Time Lords. The Time War Daleks are god-like powerful.

A lot of lines in this actually seem out of character for the Daleks. These are creatures that steadfastly refuse to adapt themselves but rather force the universe to adapt to them.

glad im not the only one

There was actually a deleted scene that showed him surviving but another comment explains it

Yes it sounds so painful

yeh brilliant

I've always liked the Daleks, emotionally cold and ruthless maybe, but you have to admire their determination and total belief in themselves.

Pity there are those out there trying to emulate the Daleks....

@@Puzzoozoo Not sure I'd call it admiration, more like a respectful fear. Evils like the Daleks aren't far from reality, which is why their eugenic, neo-fascist ideology and supreme domination is so chilling in concept -- we've seen that in history many-a time.

Nazis, in essence. Entirely singleminded, to the point of their own destruction.

Power of does that better, especially in terms of being cunning.

Yes, very astute.

I like to think it was giving a soliloquy.

If someone tries to push me around,getting too big for their boots,I look to that non-compliant Dalek for an example of how to respond. That Dalek could become a role model for our times. I haven't exterminated anyone,though.

Davros tries again with new daleks

@@haruhisuzumiya6650 I know, that's part of "embraces his creation"

Yeah a very big 'oh crumbs' moment lol.

@@annapocalypsezero4719 I love how he thinks that making his creations was a temporary error not to recognise him as their creator

Well, that's how HE created them. He needed CENTURIES to think "Mmm maybe I should have a shield built on this chair to protect me from this insanely aggressive creatures I created. Maybe..."

Nyder was the sadistic Kaled security commander who interrogated the Fourth Doctor and his companions when they arrived on Skaro. Nyder was fiercely loyal to Davros and helped him plot the destruction of his own people and was eventually exterminated by the Daleks.

@@grahampearson5670 …yeah? I know?

@@grahampearson5670 thanks for that stating the obvious.

@@TheForeverCatalogue lol

@@grahampearson5670 very true mate, idk why people are being arseholes over your comment but yeah that's a good way to describe Nyder

Never underestimate the hubris of a scientist. Always egar to prove they Can, but never asking if they Should

For the phrasal verb to work it would have to be, "The Daleks turn Davros on."

@@paulbeardsley4095 Still, odd name for a video title.

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.

Those of us that actually saw it the first time, back in the 1970's, DID get goosebumps, for all six episodes... I will never forget the first 45 seconds of episode 1, where the First World War type soldiers, in gas masks, get mown down by machine guns.... Incredible scenes for any Dr Who story, and MUST have been quite scary for many of the viewers...

Davros's disability was such that, he had difficulty to reach down towards the red button... Clearly, we could all see that Davros wanted to shut down the automatic production line, so, right at the end, even Davros wanted to stop the Daleks...

No I didn't... @@richardruff8712

He killed Davros, he is a hero

According to expanded material, it apparently is.

@@minicle426if I am god, creator of all things, what does taht make you, doctor?

​@@hyhena-gaming9986 Doctor: BRO, davros literally made you, you are like any other dalek

Nice. Calling Hartnell, Troughton and Pertwee pretenders.

@@tokublwhovian I think their calling the new series pretenders

@@WoofInationArchive they’re*

@@tokublwhovian trolling is a art

Shame the acting and visual effects are beyond cringeworthy.

hahaha ....... it's possible that he had a momentary 'robot' repeat malfunction hahahaha ----- the old broken record/skipping loop hehe. Fortunately he got out of it.

It was a hesitation

Apparently, Michael Wisher wore a kilt underneath!

Okay.

I watched it on PBS to back in the day.

One of the main reasons that moment was so stupid.

​@DomWeasel The Dalek was attempting to manipulate River Song similarly to hiw Metaltrin Manipulated Rose. Unfortunately for this Dalek, River entire job is to murder to death, also it already tried to murder her and her freinds... So it died.

"Have pityyyy" 9th Doctor : "Why? You never did"

Only little problem. Unless you're a Dalek, you will be EXTERMINATED

"We are not ready yet, to teach these human beings the law of the Daleks!"

@@minicle426 That’s exactly what I was thinking of. So simple yet so effective

@scottishjedi1522 I agree with you but for the first ones I like that the eyes aren't the same it shows that they made improvements over time

Presumably, the BBC budget couldn't stretch to buying 3 or 4 Iris Diaphragm devices, to allow the eyes to open and close... I also think that it was a nice touch in the early years.... but, hey ho ! .... that's progress.....

Sarff was nowhere close to the excellence of Nyder

Never realised this before and now i cannot unhear it

Bungle stole all his biscuits. :P

😂😂😂😂😂😂Zippy always had one hand you could see and one you couldn’t. Obviously Zippy was designed by Davros as well.

Zippy literally was an animated anger issue from what I remember

Yes, I wish that they could make a story of exactly how did Davros become so disabled...?

Exactly

IMO, the very first scene, in the first episode ( where we see first world war soldiers, in gas masks, getting mown down by machine guns, really set the scene for the whole story.... The final scene, where the Daleks finally survive all attempts to destroy them, is the ultimate conclusion to the best EVER story in Dr Who...

He built it into his life support system - presumably as insurance against the Kaleds trying to dispose of his, or even an attempted coup by the Scientific Elite. He explains that the life support system automatically puts him into suspended animation whilst his synthetic organs are repaired. As Davros himself says "I cannot afford myself the luxury of death"

That what I was thinking the same thing during the witches familier

I don't mind that Davros returned but i wish they hadn't made every subsequent Dalek story in classic Who about him

That argument could even stretch to anyone wearing glasses, such as Nyder...

Ha ha ha... Brilliant comment.... Anyone that has to " sign on " at the local Jobcentre will probably agree totally with you.... Are you suggesting that DWP staff are all heartless alien space creatures ?
