I think I'd like Destiny of the Daleks more if I could avoid constantly comparing it to Genesis; certainly, the Daleks are as thoroughly unpleasant as they should be (I mean, the fact that they use slaves at all instead of whatever stupidly advanced digging machinery they must have says more about their own sadism/desire to crush all other races etc.), although maybe a bit thick even by their own standards in the 70s and 80s stories.

I would just like Shada to have been completed (even while sticking up for the workers' right to strike). And not be rubbish. Which, admittedly, is not a given, but we can give it the benefit of the doubt, can't we? The audio version with McGann in it is great, I think.
