my brother was in the Met Police when the shot of the gates exploding was being filmed. the explosion was so loud it was thought to be an IRA bomb and my brother and colleagues were sent to the scene only to be confronted by Daleks and not terrorists.

This is the kind of thing that should be on the DVD's.

As fun as Daleks are, filming with these Dalek props must've been a nightmare

6:24 = Michael Caine: "You're only supposed to blow the bloody doors off!"

I remember at the 50th Anniversary Convention, Sylvester McCoy told a story about the massive explosion from the Special Weapons Dalek. When the gate exploded, it triggered a lot of alarms across the area (Which I believe can be heard in the behind the scenes footage), to which people contacted the police because of the disturbance. So then, a policeman (I think it was a policeman) arrived to the scene, and all he saw were Daleks emerging from a yard of debris. It's so hilarious, because it's not everyday a policeman is informed of an explosion occurring and when cropping up to the scene of the crime finds a group of Daleks slowly revealing themselves. I can only imagine how the police officer reacted or even looked like at that moment. XD

I can see why they made the change. If you have the Special Weapons Dalek, you make the most of it. You don’t just stick it in the background for a cameo appearance [grumble, grumble].

I was on the studio floor during rehearsals for episode 2 or 3… I can’t recall which it was now. The school corridor set was raised quite high off the ground, as I remember it, and we sneaked a peek under a black cloth to see what was underneath. It turned out to be the Dalek chair for the little girl. JNT has us booted out and in retrospect it was a surprise that we got in at all. We simply signed in at the main reception at TV Centre and walked into the studio. I shan’t name my co-conspirator but we got lucky that day for sure.

This deserves to be on the Season 25 Blu-Ray, it’s that good. Seeing all the raw footage is truly breathtaking.

The state of those Imperials after the gate was blown apart... wow!

Really fantastic Red/Blue Dalek designs! Always wondered how that would have turned out. But I am happy they went for the Ivory/Grey design, it helps the story fit in with the continuity of Revelation. Also the original Daleks had been grey for so long that them maintaining that colour help sell them as being the ‘pure’ ones in this story!

The problem is, the daleks don't do that droopy eyestalk that previous ones did, so as you say their dead daleks don't look dead.

This should be an actual documentary on bbc 1

You all deserve infinite rice pudding etc etc for this

Once again this is the reason why I pledge my money to you two, these videos are just fantastic to watch and gives me insight into things I never knew before. Keep it up!!

I wish they'd been able to use the scene of the gates being blown apart to reveal the Daleks behind it in the smoke. It looked a great shot.

The use of soft tyres for the Daleks was part of the problem. I remember being told by one of the crew at the time that it made any movement look like the most destructive force in the universe was set in jelly!

Wow! I have seen Remembrance so many times, enough to know the dialogue word-for-word and I never noticed / realised that the final scene with the Doctor and the Supreme took place outside the Ratcliffe's yard. This makes that last scene make so much more sense. I always thought it weird for the Supreme to be wandering the streets.

1:36 Remembrance is one of the stories I’ve watched the most, I can practically recite it from memory. Seeing footage from it that I’ve never seen before is genuinely disorienting. I can only describe the sensation like if you glanced in a mirror and it didn’t completely match what it’s reflecting.

The only criticism I can toss towards Rememberance is the Dalek Wobbling. I know it's not something that could really have fixed, but MAN I always fear those operators are gonna topple over in the casings!

Weebles wobble but they won't fall down. It was great to see this footage and the struggle the daleks had over rough ground, I'm going to have to get my dvds out and watch this episode again. Thank you once again for a great episode.

What a brilliant video! Always loved the Renegade Supreme, so it's almost sad to know that we never got to see a fight scene with him in it, but Remembrance is such a masterpiece anyway so it's no big loss, haha!

6:36 am I the only one who feels a sense of uncannyness when seeing people so unfazed by being around a dalek

The Daleks wobbling in this story is very off putting.

I've always adored the Imperial color scheme; I think it may be because they were the first Daleks I remember seeing as a child. But seeing that one in the door at the start as the lights start flashing... man, what a gorgeous design.

Some people say that some of the classic series was rushed in order to complete episodes in time, but this shows the attention to detail that was put in by the crew to really make it as realistic and continuity as error free as possible!! Great work!!!

How nice to still see fresh material on something from over 30 years ago well done guys 👍👍

Ooh, that's really cool. I am glad they made all those sacrifices to give the SW Dalek more destructive potential, as it made it far more memorial.

Wait...so Doctor Who created Red Vs Blue at least a decade earlier?

I've always loved Remembrance! The battle sequences, the Daleks in full glory and the writing and casting is just superb!

I’m always a fan of behind the scenes documentary, Sometimes out on location, and interviews with actors producers script editors directors, All that good stuff.

This superb footage emphasises once again why the proceeding story (The Happiness Patrol) looked so rough and cheap by comparison - they'd blown a chunk of the Season's budget on Remembrance' instead! Money well spent I say though I believe the director was essentially _blacklisted_ from working on 'Who again due to his 'fiscal irresponsibility'....

FANTASTIC stuff as always! And huge kudos to whoever provided you with the music - very evocative of Keff McCulloch's score for Remembrance.

Wow I was totally absorbed in that from the first minute to the last -good job, awesome to see new information about the old stories.

Love that fellow actor respect carrying that prop back for the little girl.

Remembrance of the Daleks remains my favourite all time Dalek Story, with Sylvester McCoy giving the kind of performance that other, later Doctor's could only dream of. Also, Davros' Dalek was the closest we have ever had to the Golden Emperor of the Dalek Chronicles

I vaguely recall coming to London from Woking, leaving Waterloo Station and passing an alleyway or narrow road and seeing a dalek or two. I might’ve been on a bus come to think about it. It was definitely this story they were filming.

This is quite literally the best sort of Who-related content possible. 10/10, gold stars all round. Thoroughly enjoyed this!

The wobble effect was supposed to make the Daleks appear to be hovering, but really, it just made them all look like they had a broken wheel.

Another well written and designed video Gavin. So good to see work of this quality. 👍

The Dalek operators delivered their lines in character, knowing they would be dubbed in later. Very cool!

2:20 - I suspect it wouldn't have surprised anyone if the Special Weapons Dalek was just the type to run over other Daleks if they were in its way at all. "APOLOGIES FOR IMPEDING YOU, SPECIAL WEAPONS DALEK." "..."

Wow! I did not think I could appreciate Remembrance of the Daleks more! This is an editing triumph. Thanks! The only shot I would have liked to have been kept (although I understand it would be illogical) is that of the excellent and creepy Jasmine Breaks hop-skipping past the dead daleks. Chills!

Wow just wow. Remember seeing this on its original transmission and has always been a favourite. This new info was awesome. Thanks so much for your efforts!

Loved seeing this behind the scenes footage. Great. One of my favourite stories. At the time it was exciting to see the Daleks on location on video because in those days that look was associated with live TV and news rather than drama.

Excellent work, as per usual. Made my day to see this pop up in my feed, since I knew I was in for a treat!

Fantastic and fascinating to see such a new insight into a story I know so well - thank you!

Awesome content. Got shivers seeing new Remembrance footage. First story I saw and still towers above the rest. Bravo ! This should be on the bluray.

New video packed with hi-level Dalek geekery! bliss! You guys are just epic in your research and production 😁😁👍👍

This sorted something that got under my skin the first time i watched remembrance,thank you for that and again another top video !..thanks.

Fascinating! Thanks for posting this brilliant behind the scenes footage.

This is one of my favourite episodes of Doctor Who just because of how much yet how little sense it makes.

Red and Blue Daleks!! What a great colour scheme. And another great video.

That was a great retrospective. It was fantastic seeing some of the unused footage from this story! One of my all time favorite Dalek stories.

Another astonishing piece of work. Seriously. One of my favourite stories and now a totally new perspective! And I feel for those poor operators wobbling drunkenly on the cobbles! 💪🏻

as a massive fan of remembrance and Daleks in general, I think ive watched this now about 10 times, so Im so looking forward to seeing more content of 80s Daleks as they are my fav especially the imps and when this was first released or when I got the little sneak peek from the previous ep my jaw dropped when I saw the SWD come out of the shuttle and was so giddy for waiting about a week for it, didn't disappoint me at all, if there was a way to support you guys in anyway other than subscribing I would as I just love Dalek content in general about design or the props history itself, you truly disserve to be recognised for this Thank you :)

Interesting video. Remembrance Of The Daleks was one of the first series by the BBC to be produced in stereo and broadcast in NICAM Stereo, but in London & the South-East region only from the Crystal Palace transmitter. Obviously, you'd had to have had NICAM decoding equipment to receive it in digital stereo, which not many people had in 1988.

Cracking video, as usual. Each of these documentaries have been superlative. :)

Fascinating. One of the best videos you have posted.

You should do “how Trial of a Time Lord was ruined in the filming” - Saward’s resignation, the original part 14, JNT’s panto endings, Terror of the Vervoids being recorded after all that…

I never knew about any of the troubles regarding Remembrance of the Daleks, so its always nice to learn something about my favorite Doctor Who story.

Brilliantly presented. What a story within a story.

I live for more of any Sylv story, so this was a blessing! Thank you!

Like,Like,Like, My Favourite dr Who story, and there was more to it that we all thought!!!

Love it! Please never stop! Love these videos!

Love it,fantastic analysis. Brilliant footage which I've never seen,unless it's on the dvd? Season 25 blu ray would be perfect with your narration on the extras added on the disc, we can only hope 🙏 Thanks once again.

These are great videos! And a long overdue thanks for your help over on PDF (to do with exhibition/goon props in a warehouse IIRC)

Excellent documentary! Thank you

Bloody brilliant video as ever guys!!!

Fascinating as ever!

I love Remembrance, really an excellent video! In fact all of your videos are excellent.

Another brilliant episode. I find this more compelling than anything I'm watching on TV or Netflix at the moment!

Fantastically researched and very interesting! 👍

Man, I wish there was a Dalek Story detailing wars like this. I always had this one idea/dream where we could have a game detailing the Dalek Wars. It'd be neat to see a Doctor Who game in general that's used as a first/third person shooter.

Another amazing episode! If Terry Nation was alive today he'd be proud of what you guys do! Well done.

I’m a Doctor Who and Video edit geek so I love this insight to the making Of one of my favourite stories.

Absolutely interesting hope this footage makes its way on blu ray as a bonus feature.

very cool, I miss the renegade/imperial conflict, I found it awesome there were two factions like that.

It is kind of nice some people want to spend time to help clarifying things like this.

I love this lovely Dalek video. A brilliant mini documentary.

Fantastic as always!

Literally my favorite daleks! My favorite 80s doctor, my favorite companion! My favorite story!

Really great stuff mate

i find all the artifacts left behind from reconstructive editing to be really interesting, all the things they had to bodge. i love the reused explosion detail

Remembrance is one of my absolute favourites and this video blew my mind 10 times more than any special weapons Dalek ever could! Great stuff, and worthy of being a special feature on a future release! Also, what's the music you used in the background? It's not the score composed by Mark Ayres by any chance is it? Is there any way to listen to it separately?

This is seriously the best stuff on KZfaq.

Love this thanks for sharing brilliant stuff 💖

This is fantastic 👍. As others have said, it's amazing how much info and unseen footage you have compiled here and it's a shame that the official DVDs didn't get something of this quality... Especially on this one the amount of times it's been released 😂

By far one of my favourite episodes!

love this story, especially davros' new design and the special weapons dalek

Darleks wobble but they don't fall down. Way more info than I needed.

Interesting about the colour schemes, and information i've not heard elsewhere. I'm glad they chose to go with the colours we saw on screen. As much as I like brightly coloured Daleks, this story kind of follows on from how Revelation of the daleks ended and I think keeping the colours the same helps keep the link between those two stories.

Love the work as usual, if you cover this story more I actually have a few facts that I got when I met terry Molloy, such as he disliked this production, IE he said he should have voiced the battle computer to throw people off, and that he was brought in for only one day of work, and that he was nearly replaced because they were uncertain as to weather even bringing him back for such small work would be a good idea

Absolutely wonderful stuff.

I'm not really a fan of Dr Who or the Daleks but these videos are absolutely joyful viewing, magnificently interesting.

Very great video.

I love all your videos; fantastic and so detailed. I know these things take time to edit but well worth it. Thank you for sharing. I’m annoyed that someone has decided to give this video a thumbs down. What a moron!

Great video! You've earned a new subscriber!

Perfect way to cap off my 21st birthday by watching this :)

From what episode is the music?? It's so lovely!

Great stuff... again :)
