The creator of the Daleks, Davros, is getting his own audio drama series! Yes, the folks at Big Finish are giving the all-around evil genius his own series.
In September 2006, Big Finish will release the first part of a new audio drama mini-series that will star Terry Molloy as the Dalek creator, Davros. The series will be released on four single CDs. I' Davros will tell the story of Davros's early life and the events that shaped the man who would become creator of the Daleks.
Each 'chapter' of I, Davros will relate a significant episode in Davros's life that will reveal the previously untold details of exactly how and why he became the notorious creator of the Daleks. The story will begin with Davros's early life as a teenager right up to events immediately prior to the Doctor Who TV story, Genesis of the Daleks. Big Finish have previously released a highly regarded double CD story entitled simply Davros by Lance Parkin. Elements from this story will also be woven in to this new mini-series.
Terry Molloy will once again be playing Davros. The third actor to play the role in the Doctor Who TV series, Terry's version of the crippled scientist appeared in Resurrection of the Daleks, Revelation of the Daleks and Remembrance of the Daleks. Terry subsequently returned to the role for Big Finish in the audio dramas, Davros, Juggernauts and Terror Firma. Terry also played Davros in the Hyde Fundraiser¹s stage production of The Trial of Davros in 2005 at the Tameside Hippodrome in Manchester.
