Dalek

I’ve been away for a couple of days.

Scott: True.

Did I miss anything?

Scott: Probably not.

How was school?

Scott: (pause) Normal.

Good or bad?

Scott: In a normal way – same as every other school day, roughly.

We watched some more Doctor Who tonight.

Scott: True.

A couple of Dalek episodes.

Scott: What?

A couple of Dalek episodes.

Scott: Yeah.

Have we blogged about the Daleks before?

Scott: Probably.

How would you describe them?

Scott: Eh… Half a cucumber except made of metal, and with a gun and studs and a sucker thing on.

Bit evil.

Scott: Yeah, probably evil.

Evil cucumbers.

Scott: Nyah hah hah. True.

Why do Daleks behave the way they do?

Scott: That is a question I don’t know.

Why do they hate the Doctor?

Scott: I have honestly no idea, but something to do with the Time Wars or something.

Are they the best Doctor Who baddie?

Scott: Maybe.

Are they his worst enemy?

Scott: Em… Well, he doesn’t really have a worst enemy, just many enemies. It’s one of the enemies that appears in a lot of the series. Imagine the Editor appeared in a lot of series – that would be creepy.

You love the Editor.

Scott: No I don’t.

You were obsessed by him when you were little.

Scott: When I was little.

Do you still like him?

Scott: No, probably not. As much as I like Cybermen – which is not really, I just happen to have watched a couple of episodes.
