Doctor Who: Jubilee (#40)
By Robert Shearman

Jubilee
From The Back Cover...

Hurrah! The deadly Daleks are back! Yes, those loveable tinpot tyrants have another plan to invade our world. Maybe this time because they want to drill to the Earthıs core. Or maybe because they just feel like it.

And when those pesky pepperpots are in town, there is one thing you can be sure of. There will be non-stop high octane mayhem in store. And plenty of exterminations!

But never fear. The Doctor is on hand to sort them out. Defender of the Earth, saviour of us all. With his beautiful assistant, Evelyn Smythe, by his side, he will fight once again to uphold the beliefs of the English Empire. All hail the glorious English Empire!

Now that sounds like a jubilee worth celebrating, does it not?

Episode Endings

Episode One:
The Doctor is quite horrified to find that the prisoner is a Dalek, who instantly recognises its enemy and prepares to exterminate him...

Episode Two:
Evelyn enters the tower and is astonished to find the Doctor inside, who proclaims that he thought he'd never see her again...

Episode Three:
The Dalek asks Evelyn to accompany it, and when she says she believes she has no choice in the matter, the Dalek tells her there is nothing but choices. It asks her to accompany it to its death or its revenge...

Episode Four:
The Doctor explains to Evelyn how the last hundred years lives on, lurking in the shadows. The Daleks may be gone, but the evil that men do will echo on forever, but he assures her it won't ever be as bad provided they dare to look into the shadows and take a warning from history before setting the co-ordinates for somewhere new to explore...

Memorable Quotes

Dalek: "Oh No, it is the Doctor! Scarper! Scarper!"

Rochester: "If we cannot be rebellious from time to time, who can be?"

Miriam: "We have to keep the English race pure."

The Doctor: "We haven't got time to waste on social niceties!"

Dalek: "You are not a powerful man. You lack the ruthlessness you need."

Rochester: "Anything with a Dalek on sells millions, especially in the Jubilee year. I suppose I should exercise some quality control."

Evelyn: "You've taken something wholly evil and merchandised it?"

Rochester: "Sometimes Miriam, I think you are almost too stupid to be true. That it is all a deception."

Rochester: "Ask the man in the street which he would rather, a roof over his head or a nice, big public execution, he will always choose death."

The Doctor: "You humans are so, fragile. Your lives so brief, tiny splash of brilliant colour against the timestream, then gone, forever."

Miriam: "Goodnight, sleep tight, make sure the Daleks don't bite."

Dalek: "Power is the strength to do what you would have others do."

The Doctor: "If you belittle evil, if you trivalise it, to sell washing power and soap, if you pretend it isn't there then it will happen again. It has happened again. What you have become is the Daleks!"

Comments

Jubilee is acclaimed writer Robert Shearman's fourth Doctor Who script, and sees the Sixth Doctor and Evelyn face off against the Daleks once more in a most unusual story. Martin Jarvis previously appeared in Doctor Who on television in The Web Planet, Inavsion Of The Dinosaurs and Vengeance On Varos.

The story is the first to use the Dominic Glynn arrangement of the Doctor Who theme.

The scenes featuring writer and co-director Robert Shearman and Jane Goddard as television presenters were cut for time but were featured on issue 2 of the free Big Finish Magazine CD which was released with Nekromanteia.
