“We had long conversations about bringing Davros back, because he’s a fantastic character, [but] time and society and culture and taste has moved on. And there’s a problem with the Davros of old in that he’s a wheelchair user, who is evil. And I had problems with that. And a lot of us on the production team had problems with that, of associating disability with evil. And trust me, there’s a very long tradition of this.”
What long tradition? Give some examples. This is modern leftist nuttery. Put everyone into groups based on one characteristic and if one member of that group is portrayed as evil or as a victim then that portrayal applies to all.
Tradition? The only one I can think of is Dr. Strangelove.
A bond movie and a Bette Davis flick come to mind...
Must have had more cultural impact with the sensitive men than I would have guessed...
