The Humanoids - 4/10

The Humanoids once again is a story with Jeff, Andy and Mary but this time they land on Mars. Andy's Spectroscanner shows no signs of Dalekenium on the planet but after stumbling across two injured humanoids things turn south for the group once again.


This story was very weak once again but it still had some interesting ideas. The biggest being whats in the title, the story shows the Daleks using human like agents to trick our protagonists into a trap which is an idea that will be used countless times in future but rears its head for one of if not the first time here. Another little note for this story is the fact its made concrete here that the Daleks outer shell is made of Dalekenium which is an idea that has been continued even into the new series of the show decades later.

All in all this story is nothing special but doesnt linger on enough to become terrible, it has some good ideas here and there but it's really nothing special in my opinion. (but I will say I did quite enjoy the fact it ends by them blowing up what is implied to be every single Dalek on Mars)
