Just saw Resurrection Of The Daleks last night (Peter Davison's 4th
to last episode). WOW! There were more people being killed than in an
entire season, the Doctor even uses a gun!
A British officer is going for help, the Doctor volunteers to go along
but the officer says no, you're needed here and shoves his .45 into the
Doctors hands. The Doctor continues to carry it and a few moments later
they hear a scream and rush out to find a Dalek (out of its unit) attacking
a guard. The Doctor then proceeds to blast away with the .45! Later, the
Doctor says that he's going to kill Davros, the only reason he doesn't is
because he gets locked out of Davros's lab.
I was somewhat suprised to see the Doctor actually use a gun. Although
he was never been a big fan of the Daleks he has had many opertunities in
the past to destroy them and never has. Lots of violence, no wonder Tegan
leaves.
