Day of the Daleks

Notes

For conversion into full article:

• Why does someone who supposedly requires security have unlocked french windows on his ground floor office? Surely it would make more sense to work from a higher floor.
• The orange CSO effect which acts as the background to the future Doctor and Jo seems to be permanent - still in effect when the Brigadier enters.
• Why is it always the Chinese delegation which causes problems? Same happens in The Mind of Evil.
• Special 'effect' of the Controller's chair is cringeworthy, he clearly has to move it with his heels.
• Banter between the Doctor and the Brigadier is excellent in this, and they work well as a team.
• Dalek voices are rubbish, sound like they have a sore throat.
• Dalek 'reveal' is terrible, no build up, no suspense, not even a cliffhanger. Admittedly the title gives away the main enemy but The Tomb of the Cybermen does a better job.
• Both Benton and Yates are prepared to drink red wine whilst on duty, surely a court-martial offence?
• 'Rank has its privileges' is a great line from Yates.
