"SCAN REVEALS NOTHING! TARDIS SELF-DESTRUCT DEVICE NON-EXISTENT!"
"All right...It's a Jammie Dodger, but I was promised tea!"
-- Dalek Strategist and the Eleventh Doctor, Doctor Who: "Victory of the Daleks"

Hello again, everyone! My partner in time Jesse Jackson and I are back for another new episode of Next Stop Everywhere: The Doctor Who Podcast! This time, we discuss "Victory of the Daleks", the third episode from Doctor Who Series Five in 2010, featuring Matt Smith as the Eleventh Doctor, Karen Gillan as Amy Pond, Ian McNeice as Winston Churchill, and Bill Paterson as Edwin Bracewell!

In this episode, Jesse and I discuss things like Jesse escaping the polar vortex, Jesse's thoughts on rewatching "Victory of the Daleks", Winston Churchill's friendship with the Doctor, Ian McNeice as Baron Harkonnen in Frank Herbert's Dune, Steven Moffat being inspired by a visit to the Cabinet War Rooms, the distinct titles for the Paradigm Daleks, polarizing comments made about the Paradigm Daleks relegating them to Doctor Who history, "Victory of the Daleks" being the first time the Daleks appeared in World War II, a deleted scene where the Doctor described his history with Churchill, the Doctor trying to convince Amy and Churchill that the Daleks are evil, the mystery of why Amy doesn't recall the events of "The Stolen Earth/Journey's End", the Daleks' plan to use the Doctor's testimony to prove they're really the Daleks, the Crack in Time story arc, Jesse showing Ian McNeice a caricature of him at a convention, the Churchill film Darkest Hour, Amy taking a different approach to convince Bracewell that he's human to keep him from exploding, Ian McNeice being a great Winston Churchill, Churchill wanting to use the Doctor's TARDIS to defeat the Nazis, Bill Paterson's great performance as Edwin Bracewell, the Paradigm Daleks killing the Ironside Daleks that created them, my take on science fiction, British Spitfires not being built to survive in the vacuum of space or the heat from re-entry, our favorite quotes from the episode, my Reverse the Polarity segment, new listener feedback from Holly Mac, Sandi from Oregon and Dave Proctor, Jesse bringing people together not tearing them apart, our final episode of 2025, and more!
