From a [[visual effect]]s point of view, viewers were treated to a massive army of [[Dalek]]s and Dalek spaceships. At the time of broadcast, it was the most expansive view of a Dalek army that had yet been portrayed on screen. | From a [[visual effect]]s point of view, viewers were treated to a massive army of [[Dalek]]s and Dalek spaceships.

He knows he must make sacrifices if he is going to survive but does this mean losing his beloved companion [[Rose Tyler]]? And who or what is [[Bad Wolf (entity)|Bad Wolf]]? | ||

The Daleks detect [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] flying in real space towards the saucer, and launch missiles against it. The missiles detonate, but thanks to the [[tribophysical waveform macro-kinetic extrapolator]] taken from [[Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen]], [[Jack Harkness|Jack]] has rigged up a force field around the TARDIS that protects it. The TARDIS materialises on board the Dalek saucer, around Rose and the single Dalek guarding her, which Jack destroys with the gun he improvised on the [[Satellite Five|Game Station]]. As the Doctor examines the wreckage of the Dalek, he muses that since it is now apparent that the Daleks survived [[Last Great Time War|the Time War]], the [[Time Lord]]s died for nothing. | ||
The travellers exit the TARDIS, and are immediately fired on by the surrounding Daleks, but the extrapolator's force field continues to protect them. The Doctor taunts the Daleks, reminding them that Dalek legends call him "The Oncoming Storm", and even though they claim to have eliminated all emotion, he is sure that, deep inside, the Daleks still feel fear when faced with him. He asks how they had survived the [[Last Great Time War|Time War]], and is answered by a low, grating voice, "They survived... through me." The voice is that of the [[Dalek Emperor]], a Dalek mutant suspended in a transparent tank of fluid, flanked by panels of armour and topped by an equally gargantuan Dalek domed head. Around it floats an entourage of black-domed Daleks. | The travellers exit the TARDIS, and are immediately fired on by the surrounding Daleks, but the extrapolator's force field continues to protect them.
