But is this the Doctor's own final resting place? And why do Daleks guard the inner sanctums of the perpetually interred? Perhaps the Great Healer will have the answers ... BackgroundBy his own admission, Eric Saward felt that he handled the Daleks badly in his script for Resurrection of the Daleks (1984), and so wanted another chance to try and redeem both himself and Skaro's finest. Drawing inspiration from the bleak subject matter of Evelyn Waugh's darkly comic novel The Loved One, Saward injects the story with real menace and horror, whilst at the same time having immense fun with the slick and witty dialogue. At the time of Revelation of the Daleks' transmission, Doctor Who had just been consigned to an 18-month hiatus by nervy BBC bosses, who criticised the series for being too violent and horrific, whilst also being staid and stagnant. How ironic that Revelation of the Daleks is perhaps one of the most imaginative and innovative stories that the series ever presented. | ||
