- Davros has 'died' many times throughout the history of Doctor Who - yet he always manages to return. In this video, we explore the 'deaths' of Davros and attempt to explain how this ancient Kaled scientist is still alive after all these years.
All footage and music is the property of the BBC
There was a an event in The Time War known as The Seven Deaths of Davros.
You're right, that's what I was alluding to when I mentioned Davros' death in the Time War that may or may not have happened. I'll probably do a whole video on the history of the Time War from the Daleks point of view at some point down the line so I'll include it in that
@@dalekbumps I would definitely watch that
“Im dying Doctor”
“You keep saying that, and you keep not dying”
I wish BBC would do a one off special about Davros has a young man - scientist before he was injured & went completely mad
audio story I davros, explores that
The children in need special
"Somehow davros returned"
i find it so funny how in star wars its such a big deal of it being an example of bad writing when it happened several times in Who with davros and the master🤣
@@Monocheto1I mean Star Wars USUALLY doesn’t involve time altering events
@@tacotaco288 The tremas master had a vortex manipulator all this time to escape castrovalva, prehistoric times and that fire thing😂
I actually think the way Davros survived the end of "The Witch's Familiar" was remarkably simple...
The window in the infirmary - Davros just flew right on outta there (either destroying the window himself or waiting until the collapsing city caused it to shatter)
If Davros had already engineered his chair to hover by Revelation, I'm sure post Time War Davros was fully capable
I mean he's even modified His life support to still work when he's removed from the chair
So he can definitely fly
I thought Missy helped Davros escape the crumbling Dalek city via her vortex manipulator or an emergency temporal shift.
Emergency Temporal Shift
I think Davros survived the destruction of the Crucible because the Daleks didn't build it in this timeline, as they were busy with a civil war between a faction of the new paradigm Daleks who tried to change the past.
That's all new to me, mind boggling
But…the paradgim was created as a result *of* the events involving the crucible…could the time crack have altered those events…amy doesn’t remember them after all heck!
@@GreaterGrievobeast55 who knows? I only know that the paradigms and the Children of Davros of the Crucible had a conflict, as a result of which the Parliament appeared, as part of their truce
@@Salavat550 that isn't what happened, that was a non-canon Doctor Who Experience event that Moffat had nothing to do with. There was no timeline change, the Parliament was established to account for the Paradigm's many defeats and after the Siege of Trenzalore the Paradigm were destroyed by the Doctor's regeneration
Seeing him in cobwebs like that makes me wonder what the spiders on Skaro are like.
Davros 🤝 The Master
Surviving brutal, certain death with no explanations
It would be interesting if Davros did the same as Ba'al from Stargate, and cloned himself at some point. That way, all his deaths were real, and we just keep seeing other versions. They wouldn't need to share memories, as Davros never really talks about past events.
Davros did actually a clone of himself in Terror Firma, intending to transplant his consciousness into the clone and begin life anew. This plan was foiled however when the Doctor manipulated the Daleks into destroying the clone, causing the Dalek Emperor side of Davros to become the dominant personality, effectively turning Davros into another Dalek. I'm a little unclear as to how we went from Davros becoming the Emperor to going back to being his old self by the time of the Time War
My headcanon is that the Daleks pulled him out of that timeframe like 12 does to Clara, except since we don't see him die they there's not a paradox in doing so. This is probably how Caan rescued him when the Time War is supposed to be time-locked; his ship was destroyed but nobody saw the body and just assumed he couldn't have survived that. It might even explain why Davros is dying in Season 9; he still suffered some injuries from all the explosions happening around him
He also probably had major tissue damage and severe scarring due to self mutilating his own body to create a new Dalek Empire. And the subsequent explosion of the Crucible likely made it worse.
Case in point, The Doctor was definitely having that chair.
@@moisesfavela2189 That chair's been working overtime. I feel that while Davros is too stubborn and vain to heal away his "war scars" he's practical enough to update his cybernetics. Asides from an in-universe reason for his design changes it also explains how he survived 12 taking his life support for a joy ride
Both Davros and the Master went to
“Give Death the middle finger” university.
Davros is onboard a ship about to explode? He has an escape pod.
Davros gets shot? He has a forcefield.
Davros gets infected with a lethal virus and starts leaking shaving foam? He…. I dunno, toughs it out I guess?
Davros' tunic in Genesis probably contained fibres that absorb & deflect most of the Dalek blast, but the shock is still enough to put him in stasis.

I imagine at some point off screen the daleks modified Davros's life support systems to make them better which help explains him surviving some of his deaths
I like to think during Genesis Davros predicted that his Daleks would Exterminate him once his purpose was served so to keep his legacy going on he engineered a Genetic clone of him self but it wasn't finished as the Daleks had Exterminated their creator and when they discovered the clone Dalek Prime had put the clone in Suspended animation fast forward to Destiney of the Daleks the Daleks returned to where their had hidden their Creator genetic clone to reprogram their battel computer but when they revived Davros the clones memorise of the Daleks betraying the original Davros where erased
Being written in by show writers is a surefire way for immortality.
Davros was a genius at genetic engineering and probably had a number of clone copies of himself secreted in various locations and times.
Timey-wimey: one of the on-screen deaths we've seen was Davros actually dying for good, but due to the way time works in Whoniverse, he can keep coming back for more content.
When Davros was left to death on the Dalek Crucible nearly the end of Journeys End, or may be possible that Davros was saved by Colony Sarff before the Magician’s Apprentice, but have no idea how he got ill. Let me know what you think.
In Doctor Who: Time War, didn't Davros die but then a new Davros was created from a bunch of alternate Davroses?
Indeed, I've made a video about that already: ruclips.net/video/Ujwty0uh6jQ/видео.html
I like to subscribe to the Doombot theory for Davros. Given that he is both a geneticist and a cybernetics genius, I wouldn't put it past him to have duplicates/copies that he keeps as decoys who are mercilessly killed off to allow the real Davros to escape unscathed.
He is very difficult to kill. You should already know that.
I'm amazed no one's brought it up yet but Davros survived journey's end by using emergancy temporal shift - it's a deleted scene that was cut for time but is seemingly canon as davros founded new skaro.
( I'm assuming it's just a skaro-like planet davros conquered via the daleks, witch's familiar never explains how davros could bring back Skaro after it's annihilation in rememberance )
Well, maybe he borrowed some surviving death skills from the master?
I'm glad he always survives 'Doctor Who' TV series, just wouldn't be the same without him, the thing I didn't personally like was he opened his real eyes that didn't match up with the Davros we had always known! and no-one ever mentions his voice microphone in 'Revelation of the Daleks' has moved to the opposite side of his head! I think he should always remain in his black and silver Dalek base wheel chair, black is such sinister colour, it would be nice if there were a new race of Daleks that were 100 percent loyal to him and not the recurring story of him being used by the Daleks. It would be nice to see a story where he is strong again and not at all unwell and leading a strong army of Daleks led by him and only him and totally loyal to him, with no sign of any 'Genesis' Daleks, who are against him until it suits them otherwise.
I'd love to see davros flying like the daleks one day that would look so cool
I imagine Davros would have been on Skaro for quite some time before the events of The Magician's Apprentice, so he would have had time to build an underground bunker that was easy to access from the room he was in, and eventually escape the ruins of the city.
I always assumed Davros had clone boddies he uses. Hense the clone head in Resurrection.
Dalek caan saved davros when he went back in time into the time war
The power of love
The power of friendship
I think it would be cool to see a fully regenerated Davros walking around on his own feet (But still with the creepy third eye)
cloned bodies... he is a god level master of genetics and bio sciences.
How he escaped in journeys end was emergency temporal shift was my guess
A very succinct and well made video!
Thanks!
The writers, like the Daleks, needed Davros so… walah! Instant Darvos appears!
Is it just me or would it be satisfying if in a Dalek story, a force of Daleks disregard the Doctor so they can concentrate on exterminating Davros and in the end the Daleks completely exterminate Davros disintegrating him.
Davros revived by the Black Guardian?
Does the Black Guardian have enouth power over the physical world to do that? Turlough was implied to have simply passed out. One wonders about the standing between those two though, they surely know of each other (the daleks must be very dear to BG indeed).
Davros just gets lucky sometimes, dunno, k?
Take it from video game fans of Street Fighter, The Legend of Zelda, and so on, "X is just somehow back"
I do not like Witch's Familiar. DAVIS says that it's important, because the Doctor forgave Davros, but then by the end, he's back to being a piece of shit, and the Doctor fucks with him again, and leaves him to die.
Like, not only did he rejuvenate a space fascist, but he also didn't really do a good job of killing the daleks, since they're back, still as an empire, whipping out Movellans, and the Doctor doesn't care.
I never liked how the Doctor is just perfectly happy to let Daleks be in the Moffat era. Doesn't feel like a very progressive message. "Just let the Nazis be".
Davros: You see doctor, like my daleks, my chair protects me!
Doctor: how?
Davris: PLOT ARMOUR!
Davros will return again, Don’t know when, Don’t know we’re, He will return again some sunny . On the planet of sakroe
He just got another possible death in the 3rd part of the big finish 60th, where during the time war the daleks deem him a traitor and imprison him. He then asks the timelords for aid and plans to make a new species that are hybrids of daleks and timelords, unfortunately the doctor's genetics are unstable at that exact time so his project fails but he outwits both timelords and daleks and escapes the destruction of his prison and lands his escape pod on skaro. Unfortunately as he plots his revenge on both sides and universal domination his chair gets stuck, kust as something on skaro finds him.
Davros dies cause his chair gets stuck.
He asked The Master for some tips.
It all makes sense if you accept Davros’ life is a Fixed Point in Time. No matter how time twists and turns Davros must endure and create the Daleks. The universe won’t let him die. He’s a little bit like Captain Jack Harkness… Davros is a fact!
did he make a load of duplicates of himself like Blofeld in Diamonds Are Forever?
I THINK: Thanks 2 the time travel and paradoxes, he can escape all what he want, but a price is recuare
Daleks are covered in Dalekenium.
Davros is protected by Plot Armour.
I was always wondering how much time did Davros spent in stasis in between genisis and destiny of Daleks?
I know he didnt exist in 1963 when the first dalek story aired but was there an in universe explanation on the whereabouts of davros during that story?
Timeline-wise, he's still buried in the ruins of the Kaled Bunker, and remains there until he gets woken up in Destiny of the Daleks
'Why don't you die?'
- Austin Powers, 'The Spy Who Shagged Me' (1999)
Because the Doctor saved Galifrey instead of using the Moment the Daleks also survived the war meaning that the events leading up to Journey's end never happened and so it is possible that the Daleks used time travel to save Davros from the war instead of Dalek Carn.
The Doctor saving Gallifrey didn't change the timeline, it's what always happened. That's why there were so many Dalek survivors of the Time War - the Moment was never activated. The Doctor only thought he destroyed Gallifrey, because the War Doctor couldn't retain the memories of meeting his future incarnations
No offence hear me out on this I know this sounds like a stupid idea for a big finish story but what if the 1st or 2nd doctor meets a young davros and is forced to work with him or protect him 10 or 20 years before genesis of the daleks and at the end of the story to keep continuity intact davros and the doctor both lose there memories of this event
I don't know how he'll return, but we all know next time, Tenants Doctor will come back just to push Davros down a flight of stairs.
Yeah and Davros will get back up
Davrose is the goat
He's had his weetabix
A Wizard did it
Why davros return in Journey end....Fan service.

Davies is god
