Review of Planet of the Daleks by mndy

6 April 2025

This review contains spoilers!

Not terrible by any means, but pretty uninteresting after the first two episodes. It didn't really offer anything new, and I've never cared much for stories involving the Thals. I would complain about Latep's instant crush on Jo, but she's just that lovable, I can believe a guy would fall for her in 12 hours of meeting her. Amazing fashion from the Doctor, a couple of very good lines about courage and about war. Jo's motormouth explanation to the Doctor of being saved by a Spiridon has THE funniest line: "it was terrible, and then I rescued by this bowl!!!" (since the Spiridons are invisible, and the bowl he was holding all she could see). Wait a minute, did she actually think Wester was a floating bowl? I'm very that the next serial is her goodbye, but I am super excited to see Sarah Jane next season.
