Risen (webcast)
Risen was a Doctor Who minisode written by Pete McTighe and released in 2021. It was released as part of Davros Rises!, a longer YouTube webcast which also included a trailer for the Season 17 Doctor Who blu-ray (packaged in between the two halves of the minisode, acting as a sort of ad break) and interview clips with various actors who had appeared in Season 17.
A prequel to Destiny of the Daleks, the webcast featured the return of David Gooderson to the part of Davros. This was the second-ever Davros performance by Gooderson, who had been replaced by Terry Molloy in the character's next appearance after Destiny of the Daleks.
Summary
Davros, dormant in the ruins of the Kaled bunker on Skaro, slowly awakes as he feels a Dalek flying saucer approaching the planet. As a pair of Grey Daleks begin to dig up the ruins, his hand begins to stir. But before long, on the surface, a very different ship also arrives.
