One of the things I miss most about the new series is the lack of Skaro in the Dalek stories. They covered it so well in the classic stories and it really felt like a well rounded, if sometimes 'all in one place', planet. Anyone else want to see it again?

It would be great to go back there if it could be made reasonable. I'm assuming it was isolated in the Time War, like Gallifrey, but there are always ways and means.
Incidentally, in the extra on The Chase where Raymond Cusick's talking to the current effects people, one of them cites the model of the Dalek city as an example of the kind of thing he wished they could do more of, instead of relying on CGI all the time.

I'd love a return to Skaro. And if not, there must be some sort of Skaro mark II out there. Think of all the Daleks in Journeys End for example. They can't have just spent the whole time hanging around in space. There must be a base of sorts somewhere.

I don't think Skaro is enough of a focus for me to care too much about whether we see it again. Most of the Daleks stories could take place pretty much anywhere so I don't think we're losing out by not having stuff set specifically there.

Maybe there's a Dalek space-bar they spend their time in

I'm with Aneurin. There doesn't feel like much call (at the moment at least) for a reappearance.

The model shots of the city were awesome. Skaro is one of the few planets which had a grand, largescale feeling to it.
As for a return, I think they will at some point when the story calls for it but I don't think there is any rush. I wouldn't be at all surprised to have a visit there during the anniversary.
