I saw this had to share it with the forum. 'Gay' Daleks taking part in this year's Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras in Sydney. Here's a link to the story. I must say, the Daleks are jolly fetching in pink!

I remember after asylum, some were joking that the only explanation for what we saw was that the doctor would now be travelling the universe with a sprayed pink dalek who still thought she was Oswin inside.

Impossible - Daleks don't have a gender or even reproduce (have sex), so cannot be said to be gay!

Why not a pink Dalek? Or any other colour? Regardless of our cultural associations with particular colours the Daleks would choose colours for purely pragmatic reasons.

Would a green Dalek be seen as Eco-friendly?
Or a would a blue Dalek be depressed?

Maybe they only see in 16 colours?

well people loved the doctor's brief relationship with 'handles' so imagine what fun this could have potentially been.

Having seen the picture now, I'd be concerned that they'd been taken over by the Great Intelligence, what with all the Yeti control spheres embedded in them.

I'm beginning to think the show has always been a bit camp . . .

Surely, a race that only has one sex and hates all other species but themselves must by definition be the gayest species in the universe?

Would love to see the doctor put this to them, watch them try and compute the implications and then see them start exploding, but sadly he'd never be allowed in a family show. See this is why we need Torchwood back, Jack would be allowed to ask such questions, and I wouldn't even put it past him to proposition one. He will flirt with anything.

Perhaps he could do a dry run with President Putin!

Good stuff! I haven't watched Revelation of the Daleks, but I can guess the plot now

You can't have green Daleks or people would use them as wheelie bins!

Yes their bits all dropped off when they mutated.

Having said that, the plunger can only be for sexual purposes.
(Well that and unblocking the sink.)

I've just realised whats going on. Russell t Davies has entered the doctors timeline, so that copies of him can push the gay agenda throughout the doctors entire life

I always liked the Genesis/Destiny/Ressurection livery Daleks but I don't think this is the correct thread to be promoting my 'grey agenda'.
