I can't. My mum told me if I did that I'd go blind.

I'm sure they'll take your previous good conduct into account.

I would rank the Dalek stories, but I'm terrified of sparking something off.

...C=O's looking at me funny...

1: Genesis (Space Nazis!)
2: the others except
3: Destiny.

Dave, how did you know I was looking at your funny?

Because you were ranking?

DA-LEKS HAVE NO CON-CEPT OF RANK-ING!

The frequency of your puns Hertz...

...yes, well, never mind...

And so, good night wrinklies, everywhere.

GOOD NIGHT, HU-MAN POST-ER!

You know, looking at the thread title, any chance one of our more creative Wrinkly types could create a 70s Dalek smilie?

People do. I've been told that the right sort of tailor can help disguise it, but I say why bother? It's cheaper than buying some knick-knack to use as a conversation piece.

Plus you have the peace of mind of knowing that, unless you're phenomenally unlucky, you'll never accidentally mislay it.

In order highest to lowest:

Genesis of the Daleks
Day of the Daleks
Destiny of the Daleks
Planet of the Daleks
Death to the Daleks

Ranked in order of number of cast members I have thought about sexually.

1. Destiny (3)
2. Genesis (2)
3= Planet/Death (1)
5. Day (-1)

And even if I do, people will be sure to hand it in at a local police station.

An interesting ranking system, I approve.

Absolutely so. So you see, there's really minimal downside to this.

Mine are:

1. Genesis of the Daleks
2. Day of the Daleks
3. Destiny of the Daleks
4. Death to the Daleks
5. Planet of the Daleks

1. Genesis of the Daleks
2. Day of the Daleks
3. Death to the Daleks
4. Planet of the Daleks
5. Destiny of the Daleks

1. Genesis (one of the best stories in the series' history)
2. Planet (cos this is what I always thought Dalek stories were about, outrageous adventures, hidden armies, missions, weird planets, etc)
3. Day (I didn't see this on transmission, but it was released on video before Death, so although I'm not sure is as good a production, I have a greater fondness for it)
4. Death (not much between Day and Death for me)
5. Destiny (fond memories of this which turn to dust the minute you see it again).

I would have loved to have seen one more Dalek story with Holmes involved...

BEST avatar ever...

I'd say:

Genesis of the Daleks
Day of the Daleks
Planet of the Daleks
Death to the Daleks
Destiny of the Daleks

Destiny was a huge let down, especially the portrayal of Davros

Not enough gravitas?
