Why is it they cant have a single episode of doctor who where the main suprise bad guy isnt reveal well before the episode, thankfully last episode they just put to be continued but there had been so many adverts and previews i think my dad must have been the only person in the uk who didnt know the daleks were coming.

What im trying to say is they should have more suprise appearances rather than pasting them over the front cover of the radio times ect.

I know its to gain public intrest but how many people who dont normaly watch doctor who are going to watch just beacuse the daleks are on?

You never know, there might have been a few fans of the older series (seventh doctor and before) that haven't yet given the new series a chance yet but who might have been drawn back by the Daleks return

I dont think todays daleks would appeal to fans of the old show who dont like the new one, what with the flying and so forth

Considering that the Daleks were also able to 'fly' in the original series (albeit it more like how a bullet train levitates), i'm not entirely sure that stands...

I still think thats the motivation though

In all fairness, if Doctor Who lacked the Daleks and Cybermen, would you not be dissapointed? I would.

I know also that they could do with showing less of the 'big bad guys' but then, there really would be no point to having a trailer.
