'''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was the first episode of the [[series 7 (Doctor Who)|seventh series]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' produced by [[BBC Wales]]. [[Steven Moffat]]'s first script to feature the [[Dalek]]s as the main adversaries, it also served to launch the beginning of the series' major plot strands: the end of [[Amy Pond|Amy]] and [[Rory Williams|Rory]]'s travels in [[the TARDIS]] and the beginning of the mystery surrounding [[Clara Oswald]]'s identity. The episode also saw Rory and Amy's love challenged, following on from ''[[Pond Life (webcast)|Pond Life]]'', with the issue being resolved by the end of the story. | '''''{{StoryTitle}}''''' was the first episode of the [[series 7 (Doctor Who)|seventh series]] of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' produced by [[BBC Wales]].

Indeed, from the production team's perspective, the episode marked a major victory in Moffat's war on spoilers, in that the surprise of [[Jenna-Louise Coleman]]'s appearance was preserved for the vast majority of the global audience. Despite several advanced screenings, no major leaks about her presence were known to have occurred in press reports or on social media. It was also an important episode for fans of Dalek design, in that several models of Dalek stretching all the way back to the 1960s were seen in the story — if only briefly. | ||
With respect to the [[BBC Wales]] Dalek designs, it seemed to reverse the ''[[Victory of the Daleks]]''{{'}} implication that the "colour-coded Daleks" would destroy any remaining bronze, [[RTD]]-era Daleks as inferior. Instead, the RTD Daleks were clearly shown to be numerically superior to the colour-coded version, and both were shown to be working together in a Moffat-introduced Dalek governmental structure called the "[[Parliament of the Daleks]]". The episode also re-introduced [[Skaro]] on television for the first time since the [[Doctor Who (TV story)|1996 TV movie]], showing it in a state of heavy ruin. | With respect to the [[BBC Wales]] Dalek designs, it seemed to reverse the ''[[Victory of the Daleks]]''{{'}} implication that the "colour-coded Daleks" would destroy any remaining bronze, [[RTD]]-era Daleks as inferior.
