I think the Dalek NY story was good, except that I expected a better Dalek hybrid than a stunned octopus.
The pig slaves, though explained as guinea pigs (Pig DNA is almost identical to human and is used in real experimentation) were OK as well, but I would rather have seen Robomen (1960's 'Dalek Invasion Of Earth' style).
Davros in Cardiff (rift) sounds plausible, but perhaps not on a Torchwood episode, keep Davros as the Doctor's enemy - period.
The BBC novel, starring McGaan as the doctor, titled 'War Of The Daleks' was a really impressive story and I ache to see it realised in film/TV.
Davros' pod is scavenged by a galactic trash ship and as the war on Skaro rages between the Thals and Daleks, a detachment of loyal Dalek Davros followers (previously seen in 'Remembrance Of The Daleks') intercepts the ship on which the TARDIS materisalises also.
To keep it short - Davros escapes to Skaro and starts an uprising against the Dalek Supreme.
I know what you're thinking - Skaro was destroyed by the Doctor in 'Remembrance Of The Daleks' using the hand of Omega! But, this too is explained, as even the Doctor finds out he has been played the fool.

It has a lot of really in depth studies of the Dalek psychology and 'evolution' through conversations in a '007 meets villain' style expostitionary dinner/drink session. Very good story, I recommend reading it if you get the chance.
