He was a winner, wasn't he? Forty year old TV character rarely sees that much depth and richness brought to it.
Anyone else, American or British or Other, think of the classic Star Trek episode with Frank Gorshin and Lou Antonio as the last two survivors of their black-white races? Now, the contradictions.
The Doctor (Richard Hurndall) and Susan would shove the Dalek in "The Five Doctors" and when Barbara used mud off of Susan's shoes in an early episode to blind the Dalek, that Doctor (William Hartnell) and Ian Chesterton would also touch the Dalek, whereas here in "Dalek" no one could do this without dire consequences (guy burst into flames) or the Dalek would absorb their DNA (as he did Rose).
I'm sure there are other moments in the past where it would have suited a Dalek or two to have levitated as well, tho, as was done here and was also done in Sylvester McCoy's Doctor episode "Resurrection of the Daleks".
