The bad accents in Daleks in Manhattan are one of my favorite bits. There are so many bad British accents by American actors, so it’s kinda fun to see it the other way ‘round

That "Don't think that saved your life" joke had me tearing up with laughter. That was amazing!

"To the Time War and beyond" *shows clip of The Five(ish) Doctor's Reboot*

Something people dont talk about enough is how good the soundtrack to The Daleks is

Press F to pay respect for Fred The Dalek

I also quite like Daleks in Manhattan. They are always more interesting when isolated, vulnerable and scheming.

kinda bummed the Stolen Earth/Journey's End clip didn't get intro'd with the Dalek's message for the human race because god damn that scene still gives me chills and Liz Sladen's reaction is marvelous.

For reference, here's how Mr TARDIS ranked the Dalek stories back at the end of Dalekcember (in hindsight, this may have been slightly pointless because Mr TARDIS's opinions have remained very consistent in the year since Dalekcember): 24/23 - Asylum of the Daleks and The Magician's Apprentice/The Witch's Familiar (tie). 22 - Destiny of the Daleks 21 - Into the Dalek 20 - Planet of the Daleks 19 - Victory of the Daleks 18 - Evil of the Daleks 17 - Daleks in Manhatten/Evolution of the Daleks 16 - The Chase 15 - Death to the Daleks 14 - Day of the Daleks 13 - Army of Ghosts/Doomsday 12 - The Daleks' Master Plan 11 - The Stolen Earth/Journey's End 10 - Resurrection of the Daleks 9 - Resolution 8 - Revelation of the Daleks 7 - The Daleks' Invasion of Earth 6 - The Daleks 5 - Remembrance of the Daleks 4 - Dalek 3 - Power of the Daleks 2 - Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways 1 - Genesis of the Daleks

The Daleks could levitate in classic who, in remembrance of the Daleks, one flies up a staircase

Rememberance of the Daleks is probs my favourite classic who episode I’ve seen. It felt so contemporary and hadn’t dated at all, excellent episode.

I love rewatching these ranking videos just for the sublime mini intros for each story. Really captures the feel of them all, so good!

Right here’s my ranking from what I’ve seen: 1. Genesis Of The Daleks 2. Bad Wolf/ Parting Of The Ways 3. Remembrance of the Daleks 4. Dalek 5. Revelation of the Daleks 6. The Dalek Invasion Of Earth 7. Into The Dalek 8. The Stolen Earth/ Journeys End 9. Resurrection of the Daleks 10. Revolution Of The Daleks 11. Resolution 12. Planet Of The Daleks 13. Death To The Daleks 14. The Daleks 15. Mission To The Unknown (not counting Masterplan) 16. Victory Of The Daleks 17. Army Of Ghosts/ Doomsday 18. The Chase 19. Day Of The Daleks 20. Daleks In Manhattan/ Evolution of the Daleks 21. The Magicians Apprentice/ The Witches Familiar 22. Destiny Of The Daleks 23. Asylum of the Daleks

Love it! Haven't seen many classics but my favourites are Dalek, The Magician's Apprentice/The Witch's Familiar, The Parting of the Ways, Genesis of the Daleks.

I love these Dalek videos (I subscribed last year for your Dalekcember 2019 series if I'm not mistaken). And I love the 60's Daleks, can't beat them and they will ALWAYS be supreme! "They Think They May Have Successfully Escaped Us, But We, The Daleks, ARE STILL IN COMMAND!"

I differ with Mr. Tardis on the relative merits of Evil of the Daleks. I watched it when it was originally broadcast in 1967, then repeated in 1968. It remains seared in my memory. The climactic Dalek civil war in episode 7 alone assures its place among the greatest Dalek stories of all time. But it has a good deal more going for it, including its stellar cast and the marvellous mansion house, Grim's Dyke, where it was filmed. What's more, the Daleks have never been more menacing. Despite its shortcomings, it remains my favourite Dalek story.

brilliant ranking video! your videos are always so cleverly written and enjoyable to watch. My top three are probably: genesis of the daleks, power/victory of the daleks (both similar and brilliant, i can't decide) and magician's apprentice/witch's familiar (i just really enjoy this one despite it's stupidity.)

There’s a lot of randomly really funny/campy moments in Daleks in Manhattan that are great. In one part the Daleks start trying to secretly discuss their doubts about Sec, and so one of them “looks over his shoulder” to see if anyones listening, and the entire Dalek head does a full 180 at a comically slow speed. There’s another shot where the Pig Slaves are taking the lift to the top floor of the building to stop the Doctor and in the middle of all the action and tension there’s just a shot of all these Pigmen awkwardly waiting in the lift that made me spit out my drink.

I know that Mishion to the Unknown is connected to the Daleks Master Plan, but l think the episode itself is very tense and unnerving due to there being no doctor to save the protagonists.

With all these Stories starting with re, (Remembrance, resurrection) we gotta get a story set in a Hotel called "Reservation of the Daleks".

Victory of the Daleks is a lot higher than I thought and that makes me SOOO happy :)

3:30 Okay, that was hilarious. 🤣

This was a great video, I like the new format. It would be interesting to see you do the same thing with the Cybermen and the Master. Also, pehaps a Main Range Dalek stories ranking?

I've always had the impression that, even though they were trying to trick each other, both the Doctor and Davros really _did_ mean what they had said. The Doctor, especially Twelve, is the kind of person who hopes for the best but prepares for the worst; he would've been playing into Davros' plan whilst hoping at every step of the way that Davros _wouldn't_ follow through. On the other hand, I think Davros genuinely _does_ admire the Doctor, even if it's just because of his intelligence. It seems entirely likely that, like Missy, Davros would _love_ to be friends with the Doctor, but he never lets that get in the way of his plans. I also believe that the two of them _were_ treating the whole encounter as though it was their last, because neither of them could be completely _sure_ of what the other would do. If the Doctor ended up _not_ trying to help Davros, then they'd want to finally clear the air between them, and the same would go for if Davros didn't try to trap the Doctor. I don't think it's out of the question for Davros to want some validation in his final moments, nor do I believe the Doctor _wouldn't_ go into it hoping that Davros might change. I disagree with a lot of your points about the two-parter. The casing thing was to demonstrate just how far Davros went into limiting the Daleks' range of emotion; not only did he purge them of all positive emotions on a genetic level, he also encased them into machines that prevent anything that _does_ slip through from coming out. For the episodes being "confusing", this is what happens: 1. The Doctor accidentally lands on Skaro during its millenia-long war, almost saves space-Hitler when he was a child, and runs away in horror. 2. The Doctor, feeling ashamed of himself for leaving a child to die alone, hears that a dying Davros is looking for him. Believing that meeting Davros may lead to his death, he sends his will to his friend Missy, before performing a death ritual in the most un-Time Lord way he can: a big party _full_ of anachronisms. 3. The episode happens, with Davros and the Doctor hashing it out one final time, and Missy trying to get Clara to become as recklessly overconfident and arrogant as the Doctor. 4. The Doctor returns to Skaro in an attempt to teach young Davros about mercy, allowing just enough of his worldview to seep into Davros' that Davros is unable to completely purge the concept of mercy from the Daleks.

RIP Fred the Dalek 😭😭😭

Your continuous hatred of Asylum of the Daleks is like how the Cynical Historian keeps complaining about Woodrow Wilson. In other words, it's based

Love the editing on this. I can't speak as to the quality of most of the Classic Series ones as I haven't seen them, but overall a solid list. While I have a few issues with the equivalences it tries to make, I think my favorite has to be Dalek. It had a simple goal: To make that metallic pepper pot the most terrifying thing in the universe. And it succeeded, re-establishing the Daleks not only in their actions but in their motivations. A tall order from young me's perspective, but they did it. Maybe too much. Honestly, I think a problem with the Davies Era (The, uh, first one) was that the Daleks were SO powerful that if they weren't extinct or rendered down to only a few they were a threat that needed to be dealt with IMMEDIATLY or everyone dies. Same with The Master and to a lesser extent the Cybermen. Moffat's Era...brought them back permanently but significantly reduced the fear factor ngl. I think Chibbers's stuff has the best of both worlds: The Daleks still exist, they're still very powerful and it takes clever planning to defeat them, but it's not like they're gonna wipe out everything if the Doctor isn't looking, yeah?

Favourite Dalek story for every Doctor 1. The Daleks' Masterplan 2. Evil of The Daleks 3. Day of The Daleks 4. Genesis of The Daleks 5. Resurrection of The Daleks 6. Revelation of The Daleks 7. Remembrance of The Daleks 8. Terror Firma 9. Bad Wolf and The Parting of The Ways 10. The Stolen Earth and Journey's End 11. Victory of The Daleks 12. The Magician's Apprentice and The Witch's Familiar 13. Revolution of The Daleks

I have to disagree with the placement of Revolution and Resolution

I had to watch 3:29 three times before I could continue, brilliant

Planet, Destiny and the Series 9 opener are the only Dalek stories I categorically do not care for. Everything else is either a guilty pleasure, very good or some of the best Doctor Who ever made.

Here’s mine: 25) Death to the Daleks 24) Asylum of the Daleks 23) Destiny of the Daleks 22) Into the Daleks 21) Magician’s Apprentice/Witch’s Familiar 20) Day of the Daleks 19) Resolution 18) Revelation of the Daleks 17) Planet of the Daleks 16) Daleks in Manhattan/Evolution of the Daleks 15) Resurrection of the Daleks 14) Revolution of the Daleks 13) Genesis of the Daleks 12) Dalek Invasion of Earth 11) Evil of the Daleks 10) Power of the Daleks 9) Victory of the Daleks 8) Army of Ghosts/Doomsday 7) The Dalek’s Master Plan 6) The Daleks 5) Remembrance of the Daleks 4) The Chase 3) Bad Wolf/Parting of the Ways 2) Stolen Earth/Journey’s End 1) Dalek

I am always so taken aback by the applause Genesis gets

This would be my ranking. Not including Army or Ghosts/Doomsday as it's more of a Daleks vs Cybermen story 24.) Asylum of the Daleks 23.) Destiny of the Daleks 22.) The Magicians Apprentice/The Witches Famiar 21.) Daleks in Manhattan/Evolution of the Daleks 20.) Planet of the Daleks 19.) The Chase 18.) Revelation of the Daleks 17.) Into the Dalek 16.) Revolution of the Daleks 15.) Resurrection of the Daleks 14.) Day of the Daleks 13.) Death to the Daleks 12.) Victory of the Daleks 11.) The Dalek Invasion of Earth 10.) The Stolen Earth/Journeys End 9.) Resolution 8.) The Daleks 7.) Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways 6.) The Evil of the Daleks 5.) Power of the Daleks 4.) Remembrance of the Daleks 3.) Genesis of the Daleks 2.) The Daleks Masterplan 1.) Dalek

The famous "consumer resistance" is a single line that displays up Sayward's writing style

Although it might not be best for the algorithm I love these longer type of videos and the time and effort put into these are great

I personally consider all the 9th, 10th and the first 11th dalek stories and one long story

My personal ranking is Classic who 1. Power of the Daleks 2. Remembrance of the Daleks 3. Genesis of the Daleks. 4. Daleks Aka The Dead Planet 5. Resurrection of the Daleks 6. Dalek invasion of Earth 🌎 7. Evil of The Daleks 8. Death to the Daleks 9. Planet of the Daleks 10. Day of the Daleks. 11. Daleks Master plan. 12. Destiny of the Daleks. 13. The chase. 14. Revelation of the Daleks New who 1. Stolen Earth 🌎/Journeys End. 2. Bad Wolf 🐺/The parting of the ways 3. Resolution (of the Daleks) 4. Dalek 5. Eve of the Daleks 6. Army of Ghosts/Doomsday 7. Daleks in Manhattan/Evolution of the Daleks 8. Victory of the Daleks 9. The magicians apprentice/the witches Familiar 10. Asylum of the Daleks

9:28 i like to imagine the doctor running into the next room just to punch someone

Always nice to wake up to these videos 😁

bit off topic but i love the general format of how you did this haha, the fonts, the music, just satisfying hahaha :)

Great episode. Loved the pacing. Keen to go back and check out some of the early Hartnell episodes. Cheers

Great video as always! I do love the Asylum of the Daleks and Magicians Apprentice/Witch's Familiar though... Other than that, I love the list!

my personal top 5 5. Dalek 4. the Dalek Invasion of Earth 3. Power of the Daleks 2. Remembrance of the Daleks 1. Genesis of the Daleks

Just the intro alone to this video was amazing, great vid 👌

6:35 You're misrepresenting how Clara slapping the Doctor is portrayed in the actual episode. While a female character slapping the male character has been played as "funny" numerous times in series 6-8 of the new series, here it's not. Here it's supposed to be played as a "dramatic" moment as Clara is annoyed at the Doctor's cynical attitude to believing the Daleks are incapable of becoming good. Now I'm not defending the moment itself as I don't like it either and could easily be edited out, but it's something I thought it was worth pointing out. Apart from that this list was really good.

Your understanding and analysis is the best I’ve ever seen!

This video is heavenly, ur editing makes it so epic

Exterminate and Obey wasn’t the catchphrase of the Daleks until the Chase even though Dalek Invasion of Earth had more exterminate lines than the original story.

My favourite will always be Genesis! Everything about it was just superb!

Great Ranking of the Dalek stories. I haven't seen the old Era of Dalek Stories. 1. The stolen Earth/ world's End 2. Dalek 3. Doomsday 4. Bad Wolf/ Parting of the ways 5. Resolution 6. Revolution of the Daleks 7. Daleks in Manhattan/ Evolution of the Daleks 8. Into the Dalek 9. Victory of the Daleks 10. The Magicians apprentice 11. Asylum of the Daleks My Opinion on the Dalek stories

I like these long form ranking videos. Would love to see a ranking of all the Doctors as some of my favourite have been let down by poor writing

Day of the Daleks goes much higher up the list for me, but each to their own.

Death to the Daleks will always have a soft spot with me, being my no1 vhs as a kid. But I’ll never get over that Dalek before trying to attack the Exxilons at the mine going “oooh exterminate” 😂 so scary (!)

Into the Dalek is better than you give it credit

Ditto: _Genesis_ is not only my favourite Dalrek story, it's my favourite story throughout the whole series. It has Terry Nation written all over it.

I loved Destiny of the Daleks as a kid, I realize now that it's fundamentally flawed, so it was just the Tardis duo that make it fun to watch.

The original script for Dalek was originally going to be called Absence of the Daleks and featured a single Toclafane instead (But it wasn’t going to be called a Toclafane at the time)

1. Power of the Daleks 2. Daleks Master Plan 3. Genesis of the Daleks 4. Revelation of the Daleks 5. The Daleks 6. Evil of the Daleks 7. The Daleks Invasion of Earth 8. Remembrance of the Daleks 9. Bad Wolf/Parting of the Ways 10. Resurrection of the Daleks

While I personally would flip Revolution Of The Daleks as #13 and The Daleks' Master Plan as #12, I completely agree with this list. Originally, I thought that Asylum Of The Daleks was #25 instead of #24 due to the Amy/Rory subplot happening right around the time that my parents were divorcing, but I can see why it betters The Magician's Apprentice/The Witch's Familiar which is rightfully at #25. And of course, Genesis Of The Daleks is absolutely the #1 Dalek story in the history of televised Doctor Who.

I loved your comment about "cause it's fine when it happens to men am I right" I have always said we should be more equal like that It's not ok to hit anyone not just woman

Am I the only one who like frontier in space??? ah well

Great vid was just wondering if you were going to do any other ranking stories from each classic season like the video you did for season 14

Remembrance would be No2 for me. It’s getting better and better with age.

the absolute worst has to be the chase i mean the dalek falling off the mary celeast was hilarious.

No, sorry, can't possibly agree with ranking 'Evil' so low, maybe it's an age thing, but there are some really cool lines in that story. Plus it left an indelible impression on my infant brain

RIP Fred The Dalek

Funny how people think daleks first fly up stairs in 'Dalek' yet it was years earlier in 'Remembrance' during the iconic cliffhanger to episode 1 - you've even said the same yourself here! A decent list though

What's the music used for the Resolution intro at 24:46?

"Into the Dalek" had Ben Crompton, a fan favourite from Game of Thrones and they didn't even give him a close up shot. He's just there in the wide shots with everyone else and then he's dead.

am i the only one who can follow resurrection of the daleks really easily? it’s my number 2 spot

It's a Shame that Zoe never got to Encounter The Daleks during The Troughton Era

Well, at least we can agree that Genesis of the Daleks is the greatest Dalek story

5:10 it would've been an outline... because thats (allegedly) all he delivered.

Are we going to get a ranking of all the Cybermen stories or is this just a one off thing so you can put 'Revolution' in there?

Planet of the Daleks maybe no 1 for me , odd choice for most but I was a kid who fell in love with Doctor Who by watching Jon Pertwee in this story and also death to the daleks , the only 2 stories I had growing up so of course I have big love for them , don't think the other is well liked either lol

Great video, surprised by how much I agree with the choices, I always felt asylum was the worst though, the actual idea that the Daleks would keep them prisoner is absolutely laughable.

Here's something you may have noticed known. There were a lot of problems in the Sixth Doctor's Era, with some plot points, including a secret scrapped. Watch a video inbrhe history of that Era to find out more.

I love Daleks in Manhattan :)

Very well written and super interesting video! 2 years late but good job!

38:31 the peak of Classic who

Great video and really enjoyed it. I personally rate planet of the daleks a lot higher but personal choice and all that. Keep up the great work mate.

It seems you're ranking these stories as Dalek stories first and foremost (in regards to which ones best utilise or do the most interesting things with the iconic pepper pots). Fair enough... But it would be interesting to find out your ranking of these stories when evaluating them from a more general and overall sense. How would the list change?

you say the cyber,en are mistreated in doomsday, but when ever then cyber men have another villain in their stories they always get destroyed

Just me who thinks Magician's Apprentice/Witches Familiar is quite good? Like not the best thing ever but honestly I've never thought the tank scene was that bad - isn't it kind of supposed to be ridiculous? Like the Doctor's lost all connection with reality and is just arsing about doing daft stuff I dunno I've not seen it in a while - maybe it won't hold up but I remember quite enjoying it last time I saw it

Death to the daleks is the Worst Doctor Who story of all time in my opinion.

When in Doctor who timeline did Clara Oswald became trapped inside Dalek?(Asylum of Daleks) Was it after the 12th doctor?

what's the variation of "i am the doctor" that plays at 8:23

My ranking would be: 1. Genesis of The Daleks 2. The Stolen Earth/Journey’s End 3. Dalek 4. Remembrance of The Daleks 5. Revolution of The Daleks 6. The Power of The Daleks 7. Bad Wolf/The Parting of The Ways 8. The Daleks Masterplan 9. The Evil of The Daleks 10. Resolution 11. The Dalek Invasion of Earth 12. The Magician’s Apprentice/The Witches Familiar 13. Army of Ghosts/Doomsday 14. The Daleks 15. Revelations of The Daleks 16. Resurrection of The Daleks 17. Daleks In Manhattan/Evolution of The Daleks 18. Planet of The Daleks 19. Into The Dalek 20. Day of The Daleks 21. Mission to the Unknown 22. Death To The Daleks 23. Destiny of The Daleks 24. Asylum of The Daleks 25. Victory of The Daleks 26. The Chase

Can you do some more reviews of the classic series? I really enjoyed your cybercember/dalekcember ones!!

I actually agree with most of this list. For me, though (omitting Power of the Daleks and Evil of the Daleks as I've not seen them yet)... 1. Remembrance of the Daleks 2. Genesis of the Daleks 3. Dalek 4. Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways 5. The Daleks 6. The Dalek Invasion of Earth 7. Victory of the Daleks 8. The Daleks' Masterplan (the Target novelization) 9. Resolution 10. The Stolen Earth/Journey's End 11. Resurrection of the Daleks 12. Revelation of the Daleks 13. Revolution of the Daleks 14. Daleks in Manhattan/Evolution of the Daleks 15. Army of Ghosts/Doomsday 16. The Chase 17. Death to the Daleks 18. Planet of the Daleks 19. Day of the Daleks 20. Asylum of the Daleks 21. Into the Dalek 22. Destiny of the Daleks 23. The Magician's Apprentice/The Witch's Familiar

Stories like Revolution of the Daleks and The Stolen Earth are what happens when we try to do an Action Movie in Doctor Who

7:23 this was so slow that it was unwatchable

Sorry we all have our own personal preferences. Mine is Evil of the Daleks, Power of the Daleks and Genesis of the Daleks will always be my favourites.

I'm currently doing a Dalek marathon of everything story wise they've been in throughout this lockdown, so I've do e alot of reviews about them on my Instagram, so this video came out at the right time. I'm so glad "The magicians apprentice/the witches familiar" is last it's my least favourite Dalek story of everything they've been in. There are some stories I've came across like annual stories or short comics that are ridiculously werid or gets them wrong, like a mole defeating them or Daleks believing red is explosion proof or even being defeated by pebbles. But all of those ridiculous stories don't take themselves seriously and embrace the werid side and make jokes about the Daleks. But "The Magicians Apprentice" just thinks it's being very clever and deep and tries to win special fan points for Dalek references. Some that don't even work and are there for the sake of it, like why is a renegade Dalek there if Davros has some control of these Daleks again? Plus I'll never not get mad at that idea of the Daleks aren't really evil nonsense. If you want to do that idea with a twist do it to fit the theme of Davros dying, have a what if ? Maybe in his last days alive he actually did try out the doctors idea of making them less aggressive and have an understanding of Pitty etc. But as it's Davros who also like to desive, have the suit try and stop that so in his messed up head he's got both bad Daleks and good Daleks all in one. If anyone likes the story your okay too. Btw if you want check out my Reviews @behindasofacreations

Or Mr TARDIS, to abbreviate your review on Mission to the Unknown and The Dalek's Master Plan- How to waste 13 days of your life.

#4: Dalek Mr Tardis: aLl HaIl SoNtAr

Why didn't you add day of the doctor to the list?

This video tastes of stuffing on a sunday

It’s controversial but I actually like Victory of the Daleks and Into the Dalek!! Apart from that, retty good rankings but I’d perhaps rank Power at 2 and Revelation at 3.
