Doctor Who Radio Times Cover
Doctor Who Radio Times Cover
In this week’s Radio Times – on sale today – when asked if the Doctor will face his most dastardly opponents again, Steven Moffat says:
“Oh yes, the Daleks. Actually, they aren’t going to make an appearance for a while.” What? “Yes, we thought it was about time to give them a rest. There’s a problem with the Daleks.” How come? I thought they were invincible.
“They are the most famous of the Doctor’s adversaries and the most frequent,” explains Moffat. “Which means they are the most reliably defeatable enemies in the universe. They have been defeated by the Doctor about 400 times. Surely they should just see the Tardis approaching, say, ‘Oh. It’s him again’, and trudge away.”

June 2nd, 2011 - 10:26amTDWS, it feels as if you are neglecting the ‘News’ section slightly at the moment. It used to be the first place I came for news, but now there’s no viewing figure info, none of the new trailers, nothing. I could go to other site’s that have 4 pieces of (non-spoiler) news per day, but here its only around 4 a week! It used to be so much more. Thanks, Chandra.

June 1st, 2011 - 6:36pmThey wont completely stop the dfaleks, just give them a break for a season or two so they have a bigger impact.

May 31st, 2011 - 10:26pmHe said in DWM a couple of months ago that he was “wanting” to rest the Daleks and that the chances of them showing up this year were very slim (and would only be a cameo in episode 13). This is confirming that he has indeed gone ahead with his plans.

May 31st, 2011 - 9:15pmi think, at least a series without the daleks, not til 2013, he may be giving them a rest, but that may be a little to long? just my opionion! 😀
Fox Mulder
May 31st, 2011 - 7:53pmIncest on doctor who LOLOLOLOLOL, I’dont think it will go that far just for a twist lol
Fox Mulder
May 31st, 2011 - 7:50pmThere probably leaving the daleks for an epic finale in 2013 during the 50th anniversary
CG
May 31st, 2011 - 5:20pmLets hope not. Just how wrong would that be, passionitly kissing his own daughter like he did a few episodes ago…. yep apparantly its her SPOLIERS!
Dark Side of the Moon
May 31st, 2011 - 3:33pm*EDIT*
“It would NOT suprise me….”
Dark Side of the Moon
May 31st, 2011 - 3:32pmBesides the “promise” of finding out who River is, there is no way that they can answer all the question that have popped up in this series in 45 minutes….and no way they would want to…otherwise what are the other 6 episodes going to be about…all I can say is that it is going to feel like a life time waitng for the second part of the series! it would suprise me if for every answer given, we are left with even more questions 🙂
I’ve watched DW since 1979…this IMO is by FAR the best series to date….so far, lets hope its not another anti climax of a finale like the last series.
biggest doctor who fan
May 31st, 2011 - 3:25pmI think it’s the doctors child.
booboo
May 31st, 2011 - 2:58pmSo Steven Moffat told you himself then did he? He’s only just made this statement, up until then it was just a rumour and we dont post them.

May 31st, 2011 - 2:50pmI herd about the daleks being of Doctor Who months ago, were has everyone been? In a cave or something?
TorchwoodGuy05
May 31st, 2011 - 1:13pmI hope they aren’t. I think they should leave them for like, 3 series, then bring them back to make more of an impact.

May 31st, 2011 - 1:13pmthe truth about who the baby is will be a big story point,weather it is connected to the little girl who was seen regenerating remains to be seen!Good cover of karen though.
The Master
May 31st, 2011 - 12:56pmHe has said via twitter that he meant just this series so technically they could be back a t Christmas
