'''''Resurrection of the Daleks''''' was the fourth serial of [[season 21]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]''. It was the final regular appearance of [[Janet Fielding]] as [[Tegan Jovanka]], who left the [[Fifth Doctor]] for the second time. It also marked the return of [[Davros]] and the [[Dalek]]s after their last appearance in ''[[Destiny of the Daleks (TV story)|Destiny of the Daleks]]''. [[Gustave Lytton|Lytton]] makes his debut and, strangely for villains of the time, survives with no ill effects. | '''''Resurrection of the Daleks''''' was the fourth serial of [[Season 21 (Doctor Who 1963)|season 21]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]''.

A group of futuristic humanoids are running down [[Shad Thames]] in 1984. As they attempt to escape, they are gunned down by two policemen led by [[Commander]] [[Lytton]] in the uniform of an inspector. Two of the humanoids, [[Galloway]] and Quartermaster [[Sergeant]] [[Stien]], escape into the adjacent wharf where a time corridor is situated. Galloway is killed by a [[Dalek Trooper]], leaving Stien alone. Lytton transports back to his battle cruiser and prepares to attack a [[prison]] [[space station]]. Its only prisoner is [[Davros]], the creator of the [[Dalek]]s. | A group of futuristic humanoids are running down [[Shad Thames]] in 1984.

Meanwhile, [[Fifth Doctor|the Doctor]], [[Tegan Jovanka|Tegan]] and [[Vislor Turlough|Turlough]] are being dragged down a [[time corridor]] in the [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]], shortly after their departure from [[Frontios]].

They land in an apparently disused part of London. | ||
On the prison ship, | On the prison ship, [[Grey Dalek|Dalek]] [[Dalek drone|Drones]] attack, trying a direct frontal assault on the outside of the station airlock with poor results. The station crew, led by Dr [[Styles]] and [[Lieutenant|Lt.]] [[Mercer]], fight back in force. Lytton persuades the [[Black Dalek Leader|Supreme Dalek]] to use poisonous gas to dispose of the crew. This proves a success and the Daleks have little trouble taking over the station. Following orders, Watch Officer [[Fabian Osborn|Osborn]] tries to destroy Davros, first with a non-functional automated system, then in person. However, Lytton and an engineer break into the cell and kill Osborn before she can complete her mission. They then release Davros from his cryogenic imprisonment. | ||
The Doctor and his friends have by now met a traumatised Stien. He joins them in returning to the warehouse to hunt for the time corridor. While the others are distracted, Turlough vanishes. While searching for him, the Doctor, Tegan and Stien meet a military bomb disposal squad, led by [[Colonel]] [[Archer (Resurrection of the Daleks)|Archer]], who were called in after builders converting the warehouse into flats uncovered what they believed were unexploded bombs. Turlough has ended up on the Dalek ship after having stumbled into the time corridor. | The Doctor and his friends have by now met a traumatised Stien.

* This story has an unusually high body count, even for ''Doctor Who, ''at 76. Besides the Doctor, Tegan and Turlough, only Davros, Lytton and his two policemen survive.

Much of the violence appears gratuitous, such as the murder of Laird, the killing of a crew member infected by a disease, and the shooting of the man with the metal detector whose attention Tegan tries to attract - but these were likely included to set up Tegan's departure at the end of the serial, a decision which she makes due to the high death toll of the adventure. | * This story has an unusually high body count, even for ''Doctor Who, ''at 76.
