Full marks here too. I'm not surprised, Paul Cornell wrote this one. It's a brillliant story that is a nice what-if that at the same time helps the show step out of its usual template. But like all great sci-fi, it's not only an entertaining story, but one that makes us think about the human condition. Plus it has some nice references like the metebelis crystal in John Smith's room.

I read the original book this story was based off of- it's quite different from the tv adaption. More war imagery and less of the rosy budding romance with the Doctor. Plus it's the seventh Doctor and set in a slightly different context with the same basic premise. They're both brilliant and I don't think I can really compare the tv version with the book. They're surprisingly different yet similar at once.

Today, the Kaled race is ended, consumed in a fire of war. But, from its ashes will rise a new race. The supreme creature. The ultimate conqueror of the universe. The Dalek!
