the Daleks (TV2, Wednesday 21/04/79)
ANZAC DAY, APRIL 25
DR WHO AND THE DALEKS (1965) TV2 goes back to the beginning for this
big-screen spin-off from the BBC serial of the early 1960s, and many of the
familiar TV characters are substantially changed. Peter Cushing moves over from
his horror roles to be the inventive and absent-minded Dr Who. His two
grand-daughters, Jennie Linden and Roberta Tovey, and the elder's boyfriend,
Roy Castle, join in the adventure when Dr Who's time machine takes them to a
planet where the Daleks are planning to destroy the peace-loving Thals. The
four intrepid earthlings manage to ensure good triumphs over evil in this
acceptable juvenile entertainment. The heavy-handed attempts at humour make it
less suitable for adult fanciers of science fiction, though the Daleks are
admirable villains.
