Looks just like the TV scene! And great background lab!
And Thank You for appreciating my Ten and Rose figures outdoor scenes! (I have a lot more but I need to get them saved before I can post them).

"Don't touch that switch!" "Why not?" "It controls my life support systems. I could not survive thirty seconds without them." "Order the destruction of the incubator section!" "Destroy the Daleks? Never!" The Doctor turns the switch off for about 5 seconds, then turns it back on. "I mean it, Davros, next time I press that switch, it stays pressed, now give the order!"

That Davros figure looks so uncanny.

I'm lazy, I'd just use the "New" Davros for everything. He hasn't appeared enough anyway, Julian Bleach was great.... the only good thing in a crap story. I don't really miss RTD XD;;

God...
Well caught.
Reading this is shows a man with passion and interest - and I always admire passion and interest.
This is Dr Who's "Goldfinger" moment; where the show is not a show no more but has evolved into something more substancial. I remember seeing this a number of times and it is just a chilling episode; its the Nazi nightmare of anhiliation combined with genetic experimentation as the Tharls/Skaros evolve into the blobs inside the terror casing meets nuclear war - and back in the 70's we all thought that some fool was going to press the button.
The height of this was when the Doctor came out of the lab with something attached to his throat - just as the film Alien became famous for such terror. Enough to make anyone hide behind the sofa.
Also here is a terrifying and disturbing story; all is powerplay and all is terror and horror. It is bleak as bleak can get but it is a sensible reasoning.
The re-enactment here is spot on - almost real; even down to the shimmering of the sets!
Excellent sir!

Thank you for this lovely comment!
Indeed, when I sat down to write my essay on the Daleks, I realized just how far those connections to Fascism and especially the Second World War actually extended. The story itself is still such a timely piece of writing nearly forty years on, as we as a society have evolved to a point where we could any day now become just like the Daleks...a truly terrifying circumstance to say the least.
I actually have a mock-up of that moment you describe with the Dalek mutant strangling the Doctor. Its not very good but was part of a photoset I put on Tumblr that included Sarah Jane as part of the scenario.
Again, thank you for your kind words and encouragement!

Thanks. I was excited when I finally got a good deal on this set, I wanted to do this photo for the longest time.

You're welcome! I know how you feel. I wanted to make a proper Pertwee era comic strip for a long time and once the Three Doctors set was released I purchased it immediately and once it arrived my dream became reality.
