Dr Who and the Daleks

"Why do not the doors close?"

   After finishing the Daleks Ang wanted to rewatch the Peter Cushing film based on the story.  I am not the biggest fan of this adaptation, but she is.
   It has much of the same plot, but in a condensed form.  There are some things about this production that I like, a number of things that I don't care for. 
   I'm guessing that we'll do something like this with the next Dalek story when we get to it's end.  I actually do like that movie much better than this one and it has Bernard Cribbins which is always a plus.
   This is extra-credit for us; it doesn't count as an episode.

  1. Peter Cushing was a god! Even when he's playing the next worst Doctor after Colin Baker. (Sorry, Colin!) And who would not enjoy Thals with blue eye shadow against backdrops of those 60s-colored sets? I kept thinking of TARDIS used like a proper name without the "the" today and had no one to laugh with about it. Poor me!
