* ToughActToFollow: Many fans think that despite being a twelve-parter, it's the most ambitious as it shows how ruthless the Daleks are as they want to destroy life forms that aren't like them outside of their home planet. While "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS4E3ThePowerOfTheDaleks The Power of the Daleks]]" and "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS4E9TheEvilOfTheDaleks The Evil of the Daleks]]" are still beloved by fans, the stories during Creator/JonPertwee's run don't really match up to what happened in the 1960s and it won't be until Davros shows up in "[[Recap/DoctorWhoS12E4GenesisOfTheDaleks Genesis of the Daleks]]".
* UnexpectedCharacter: The Meddling Monk turning up in Episode Eight comes out of the blue; a comic, ineffective previous villain returning in dark serious Dalek story. Especially since the show had never had a returning guest character up to this point.

* AngstWhatAngst: The first ever companion deaths in the series are encountered- that of Sara Kingdom and Katarina. Is the Doctor depressed about this? Broken, that after taking up Barbara and Ian so long ago to travel in space in time, that a human died in his helpless hands? No. He shakes his head, says goodbye, and moves on. Sara Kingdom also appears to get over the fact that she killed her own brother very quickly. Averted by Steven, however, who is clearly distraught at Katarina, Bret and Sara's deaths despite only knowing them briefly, and calls out the Doctor on his reaction.
