Doctor Who: Will we see the return of Davros?
From an interview with Terry Molloy (the staple Davros 'actor'):
"... It's been a long process to sort out the permissions between the BBC and Terry Nation's estate to have the Daleks back. We now know they'll be back, but where does this leave Davros?
Well he's going to be around somewhere - isn't he? I dunno, you'll have to ask the production team about that one.
I'd love to get the phone call. I would love to do it again, I guess I'm probably one of the few people from the original series who could go back to the new series because of the nature of the part.
Because we're a time-based programme, you can jump to wherever you want in Davros' rise or fall. The way he was going there wasn't much of him left but a head at the end of the last series ..."
Since his last appearance on the show in 'Remembrance Of The Daleks' with Sylvester McCoy in 1988, he has been a bit of a recluse.
There were a couple of audio stories with him and one very good WHO novel I have read called 'War Of The Daleks' where Davros' Daleks attempt an overthrow of the Dalek Primes Regime on the planet Skaro (Who fans will know what I'm dribbling about), which as it turns out was not destroyed by the Doctor in 'Remembrance' at all.
What do all you sci-fi and WHO fans think of the return of Davros?
