In the 2005 television series, Gallifrey has been destroyed and the Time Lords are functionally extinct as a result of a mutually destructive Time War with the Daleks, with only two Time Lords known to have survived: the Doctor and his nemesis, the Master.

Although this is still unclear as in " Journey's End " the Daleks call the Doctor " the last child of Gallifrey " and in The " End of Time " a Time Lord on the high council states that a prophecy referring to the Doctor and the Master " speaks of two children of Gallifrey ".

At the start of the 1996 Doctor Who television movie, the Master is put on trial on Skaro by the Daleks and exterminated.

The Daleks give chase to the Doctor, knocking the Master once more into the sewers.

In return for his enhancement, the Master intends to give the Daleks a weapon of vast power-the Zektronic energy beam-a weapon that would " allow the Daleks to conquer the universe in a matter of minutes "... by means that will be explained later.

When the Doctor tells the Daleks they'll have to share the universe " with the beard and the bosoms over there ", they inform the Doctor that they plan to exterminate the Master after he has assisted them.

The Master vows to live a life of heroism in honour of his fallen foe's memory, as do the Daleks.

Flamethrowers were, however, later incorporated into the Daleks seen in the TV serial The Daleks ' Master Plan broadcast later in 1965.

Davros is an archenemy of the Doctor and is the creator of the Doctor's deadliest enemies, the Daleks.

Cast in the role of Davros was Michael Wisher, who had previously appeared in several different roles on Doctor Who and had provided Dalek voices in the serials Frontier in Space, Planet of the Daleks and Death to the Daleks.

When he first encounters the Fourth Doctor in Genesis of the Daleks, Davros is the chief scientist of the Kaleds, one of two native sentient races of the planet Skaro.

In the Fifth Doctor story Resurrection of the Daleks, a small Dalek force aided by human mercenaries and Dalek duplicates liberates Davros ( now played by Terry Molloy, with a new mask designed by Stan Mitchell ) from his space station prison, needing his expertise to find an antidote for a Movellan-created virus that has all but wiped them out.

The hypothetical creation of a viral weapon that could destroy all living creatures had been the subject of a discussion between the Fourth Doctor and Davros in Genesis of the Daleks.

Davros emerges as " The Great Healer " of the funeral and cryogenic preservation centre Tranquil Repose on the planet Necros in the Sixth Doctor story Revelation of the Daleks, where he uses frozen bodies to engineer a new variety of Daleks loyal to him, distinguished from the original Daleks by their white and gold livery and slightly changed design.

In earlier episodes, Davros is referred to ( albeit not by name ) twice: first in the episode " Dalek " by the Ninth Doctor, who explains that the Daleks were created by " a genius ... a man who was king of his own little world ", and again by the Tenth Doctor in the episode " Evolution of the Daleks ", where he refers to the Daleks ' creator as believing that " removing emotions made a race stronger ".

The Doctor taunts him about being the " pet " of the Daleks.

He also manipulated events to bring the Doctor and Donna Noble together, who manage to defeat the Daleks.

The first, " Nemesis of the Daleks " (# 152-155 ), with the Seventh Doctor, features an appearance of a Dalek Emperor.

" The Doctor initially assumes Davros's personality has been totally subsumed, but in the later strip " Emperor of the Daleks " (# 197-202 ) this Emperor is shown as a different entity from Davros.

Set prior to Remembrance of the Daleks in Davros's timeline, but after in the timeline of the Doctor, the latter, accompanied by Bernice Summerfield, together with help from the Sixth Doctor, ensures that Davros will survive the wrath of the Daleks so that he can assume the title of Emperor, allowing history to take its course.
