The daleks are viciously better here. Nasty dialogue and nasty beatings by the ogrons on Susan Mendes, and Sylvester is at his most misleading best. He is such a great Doctor. Sad he hasnt done as many audios as the other doctors. And Spiridon being back is a good and for me long awaited idea. The infection is a good line too. Sadly this is too short. Could have been extended and still have been just as good.

Return of the Daleks is mostly here to cement a link between the Doctor Who series and the Dalek war series. As such, there is much less of The Doctor's presence than is typical. This is a "return" story in a number of ways. Mainly, it is a return to the Doctor 3 story "Planet of the Daleks." This is kept well hidden until about halfway through the story. The Doctor is visiting a planet where he pretty much knows what will happen to make sure that it happens in the right way. This involves pushing along two people who supposedly work for the Daleks, but are secretly stirring up rebellion against the Daleks. As such, this is much more their story than The Doctor's. So, not much happens outside the parameters of the basic premises, and the story proceeds pretty much as one expects it to.
