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 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 for the first time since 1979, being his second-ever Davros performance.
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.
