The new fx were awful though, esp the dreadful CGI ship in the last episode that sticks out like a sore thumb. Why even bother when they're worse than the originals?!!?
I remember paying a tenner for a bootleg vhs of Planet of the Daleks way back. It was totally unwatchable, haha.

I've always had a soft spot for it to be honest. If anything i think it's the first couple of episodes that are the worst, get through those and away we go.

I remember there was a photo similar to this one below in the Marks and Spencer Dalek omnibus hard back book in the seventies and it totally captured my imagination.
