One of my earliest memories of Doctor Who was the introduction of the New Dalek Paradigm. Today we’ll be taking a look at the legacy of these Daleks 13 years on, and why they were ultimately sacked off from the programme…

Phenomenal video. I have an equally big obsession with these Daleks and will be getting that new Big Finish set

This video had actually made me come to reassess and re-appreciate the Dalek Paradigm. I do wish Moffat had stuck to his guns and kept them for Smith's run and even Capaldi. The Time War Daleks get so boring after a while.

I met Nick Briggs in 2015 at a convention in Texas, and I asked him about the purpose of the Eternal Dalek in a Q&A and he gave a joke answer about it taking an eternity to get on a flight. Later he found me in the gift shop and just walked with me for a minute, and said he wanted to make sure I didn't think he blew me off. He said he wished they had been done slightly differently and given a chance, but it wasn't to be. Love the Paradigm, and I'm glad to find someone who does too.

I do hope that the paradigm Daleks stay as sort of a higher officer positions that are less common but more deadly.

I’ve always liked these Daleks - size, voices, eye stalk and colours. It’s a shame Moffat and Gatiss didn’t get to further their plans.

City of the daleks should have been an actual episode

@JeremyMiller97 2 years ago

I really hope this video does well as I love the Doctor Who centred content.
Maybe even an extended look at the Adventure games some day?

Hated these Daleks as they weren't cool enough for 12 year old me

BUT

experiencing them go up against the Cult of Scaro during ‘Doctor Who: The Experience’ was a highlight of my teens

This is very well done! I was lucky enough to see both the eternal and stone daleks at the Cardiff experience just days before it was to close in 2017

I always loved the adventure games. Honestly, I think the stories are great and fit into their respective slots in the story perfectly, and I find them really fun to play. A few years ago, I replayed them and actually still wasn't disappointed!

I sincerely hope the new paradigm storyline gets picked up in the actual show again at some point. It's a show about time travel, so a yet-to-be Doctor could easily encounter them years from now, and the show has picked up old storylines that had seemingly been abandoned decades prior before. There's a lot of great and unique story possibilities that I'd love to see, and that eternal Dalek is practically screaming to be used for something spectacular.

I always liked them, they were very bold and 60's inspired. Easy to tell apart, I liked that each colour was a separate role.

I do have nostalgia Paradigms they’re my first ever daleks. I love how they took inspiration from the movie props it’s a shame they never really got used in the show. Also the part about doctor who live brought back a memory of me being scared of the monsters and ending up leaving early

I included the Paradigm in my fanfic with the original 5 as the Acting Supreme Council with the Chrome Parliament as the Officers, and new redesigned paradigm Drones. After the assassination of the Dalek Prime Minister by the Children of Davros Survivors.

Did not expect 2024 to be the year I respect/appreciate the paradigm Daleks but here we are!!!

Cracking video; I'm totally swayed they have/had potential now!!!

@akshaytrayner1960 2 years ago

Great vid it’s a shame we never got a proper sequel

@GrievousDu38 2 years ago

I miss these Daleks and got confused when the "old" Daleks randomly came back
I made my own LEGO Paradigm Daleks when I was a kid and when I watched LEGO Doctor Who Stop Motions, it was usually the Paradigm Daleks the villains

@ferbusgddc 2 years ago

I loved the Paradigm Daleks as a kid, mainly because I got a plushie of the red one and me and a friend spent hours sewing all of the rest of the colourful fellas!

@GeorgeTheDinoGuy 2 years ago

This video is really great, I love the way you manage to capture all of our childhoods and our thoughts towards the paradigm. My opinions on the paradigm have bittered over the years, but this video has helped me discover my love for them again. Good work!
