S1 Ep2 The Daleks

First broadcast from 21 December 1963 to 1 February 1964.The TARDIS lands on the planet Skaro and we meet the two indigenous races - the peaceful Thals and the warlike Daleks!

Barbara and Ian’s kidnapping continues on a new planet. The Doctor shows his cheeky side amongst the Ancient Greek gods.

We discuss the ultimate dalek kitchen, how they dislike fairground rides and how their projects are giving HS2 vibes. We deal with themes of pacifism and how picking flowers on a dead planet is very sketchy. And get ready for a thrilling impression from David.

Warning: this episode contains much more feet-chat than you’d expect.

Firsts: Our favourite baddies, a MacGuffin, a countdown and mercury
