Futures Trading (Contradicting “Day of the Daleks”)
Pull To Open - A podcast by Pete Pachal and Chris Taylor - Saturdays

Perhaps no classic episode has benefited more from a “special edition” than Day of the Daleks. Although it tells a solid timey-wimey paradox story, the original version didn’t do justice to Doctor Who’s No. 1 monsters. They only made three rather diminutive props for the story, and the voices made Lumbergh from Office Space sound good. But when you add some convincing disintegration effects and dub new cries of “Exterminate!” from the incomparable Nicholas Briggs, it really levels up this adventure to the compelling return of the mechanical crowd-pleasers that it always should have been. What does that say about the material, though, that relatively superficial enhancements make such a difference? This bears close examination, so Blinovitch limitation effect be damned — let’s go back again to 1972. Don't forget to give your own rating for Day of the Daleks on Spotify!
