Is there a link for the leaked audio clip? I wouldn't mind listening to it.

Actually it is the second longest gap: the first being [[Day of the Daleks]] wich was a five years gap.
== Most Dalek Models? ==


::This is the statement to which the above anon poster referred:
How can "this episode holds the record for the most non-CGI Dalek models used in a single story" be true when Moffat collected so many Dalek models from different eras for Asylum of the Daleks? I would think that episode holds the record.[[Special:Contributions/69.125.134.86|69.125.134.86]]<sup>[[User talk:69.125.134.86#top|talk to me]]</sup> 21:14, April 2, 2013 (UTC)
::* Discounting their flashback cameo in [[DW]]: ''[[The Waters of Mars]]'', this is the longest gap between Dalek stories in the New Series, at almost two years since [[Journey's End]]. It is also the first standalone Dalek episode since [[DW]]: ''[[Dalek (TV story)|Dalek]]'' in 2005 and the Dalek appears to be an earlier model, using grey armour that was last seen in [[Remembrance of the Daleks]].
::I have now removed it, because it's such a nebulous claim. If you ignore that there were Daleks in TWOM, and if you ignore the fact that thre was no series in 2009, then it's a 21-month gap. But those "ifs" are very iffy indeed. From a production standpoint, the 2009 specials are a part of series 4, so there's two Dalek appearances in the latter part of series 4, and there's one here at the top of series 5. That's not at all that big a deal. The other way of looking at it, is that there are Daleks in every series of [[BBC Wales]] DW. Very many people would not consider there to be any sort of gap in Dalek stories in 2005 DW, and would counter with the point that the Daleks have been used more frequently now than at any point in DW history.


::As for the second sentence, it's not clear at all what it is meant. What does "standalone Dalek story" mean? And there are two Dalek models in the trailer, anyway — possibly three. So who knows what that sentence means.

: Good question (but watch that preload button on these pages :)). It may have been surpassed but nobody edited it since then. Since I don't actually know, I won't be doing it.

:::I'm pretty sure by "standalone" they mean the first Dalek story since "Dalek" that consists of one episode [[User talk:Drophyd167b|<b><span style="color: Blue">The b-Unit's</span></b>]][[User:Drophyd167b|<b><span style="color: Orange">167th Drophyd</span></b>]] 13:57, March 7, 2010 (UTC)
 
Bloody hell. This sounds even worse than Catherine Tate
 
Having taken a look at the trailer after Eleventh Hour in slow motion, I'm not sure the pilot of the Plane flying towards the screen is human. Either that, or it's a rather strange space helmet...
 
Another wrong statement is "the Dalek Saucer seen in the dogfight with the Spitfires is the same sort as those from DW: ''Bad Wolf''/''The Parting of the Ways'' and DW: ''The Stolen Earth''/''Journey's End"''
 
The Saucers seen in The Stolen Earth/Journey's End were different than the ones seen in Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways, though they were similar. Furthermore, the saucer seen in the trailers is seen to have more weapons on the top half, while it has a strange disc firing a blue ray not present on any other models on the underside. A more appropriate statement would be "The Dalek Saucer seen in the dogfight with the Spitfires is ''similar'' to those from Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways" as it is NOT the same.
===Pictures===
The silver Dalek was fan made and the black Dalek has no relation to this story whatsoever.
 
Since the new looking daleks(White,Blue,Yellow,Red) look super new while some keep their Russel look should we say these daleks my have a higher rank than the normal daleks?-[[Special:Contributions/207.241.247.1|207.241.247.1]] 16:14, April 14, 2010 (UTC)

Most Dalek Models?[[edit source]]
