Things you might not have noticed and things I might be making up time.
The girl who was a Dalek may not have been a girl who was a Dalek.
I have my theories.
Solomon's computer not having a clue who the Doctor is doesn't sound like a dip in the database to me either.
The new paradigm Daleks didn't take offense at the outer casing of their near cousins but the blobs of impure hate within so why not keep the better looking shape?
I would have painted them so that the iDaleks were department heads but there is nothing wrong with those travel machines.
I liked the prime minister (he should be the lowest ranking Dalek of all naturally) I would have made him look like the TV21 Emperor Dalek :
It was nice to see an established and diverse Dalek civilisation remain intact at the end of the episode and not erased at the flick of a switch.
The haven't felt so tangible a culture since the Troughton telly years, the TV21 comics or the Big Finish audio series.
The chains (nanobots could make and maintain these).
The asylum exists as sentimental preservation of the beauty of the hatred of it's inmates.
If you had a race that worshipped lust they may have a perv asylum with velvet sheets and kinky toys etc.
The Daleks admire and nurture hatred so their 'intensive care' is to chain up the biggest losers and rub the Doctor's defeat in their eyestalks to stir up that blessed loathing (they should have been old style casings though).
At the very heart of the complex, chained in the lowest level of Dalek hell is a special case. Worse than insane, something so bad that only the Doctor can remove it (it should have been glass Dalek revisited though).
There wasn't enough options on this thing :
It would have been nice too to see the Dark Dimension Dalek as a fan took the time to actually make one:
Shared intelligence isn't exactly new.
The Daleks were once held in centuries of frustrating peace because their battle computers ran on logic as did the Movellan's (the Disco Robots with the silliest design flaw in the history of robotics).
Human Dalek agents aren't new either:
Adding nanogenes (last seen turning everyone into gasmask zombies) kind of makes sense to me.
Robomen and Ogrons would have really have made this the most Daleky Dalek story for decades.
Why wouldn't the Doctor have some adventures with Nefertiti and a big game hunter?
He has travelled with a bounty hunter, a knife throwing savage and a killer shape shifting robot, one previous owner, The Master.
The Dinosaurs were meant to be in cryonic freeze but some had got out when the Silurians were woken up by Peter Stringfellow.
It was fun in the sort of way children would enjoy (I can see kids getting all their toys out to play out this episode, pirates, robots, dinosaurs,) but it lacked that spooky woozy feeling that came from last years opening two parter.
The hint at violent rape, sex slavery and the bambismomosaurus scene felt a bit too heavy handed and if he could sonic the comedy robots off later why didn't he do it sooner?
