Bonus Episode 34: The Daleks Have Blue Balls! (The Daleks... in Colour!)

It’s time for a bonus episode! We are joined by our wonderful friend Diana Birney as we return to the very beginning, to discuss the recent re-edited, re-scored, and colourised version of The Daleks!

 

Join us as we talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly of this. And there’s probably more bad and ugly than good, to be honest… still, even though they cut the “Baebara” storyline and removed any actual tension from the story, at least we get to see Barbara’s amazingly garish pink cardigan. Small blessings, amirite…?

 

If you would like to watch along with us, the animated version of this story is available on iPlayer in the UK, and is available on Blu Ray from both Amazon US (https://amzn.to/42Izkst) and Amazon UK (https://amzn.to/49e4pqu).
