I never finished catching up on the rest of New Who, so I've not see "Dalek" or "Daleks in Manhattan." I know, it's terrible. I have the attention span of a chipmunk, until I find the thing that's my new favorite, and then I will stare at it FOREVER.
That's a good point, forgiveness and mercy are not the same as love even if they grow out of it.
Somehow I didn't get the part where the Daleks were flipping out about Oswin specifically, but you're totally right and that makes it even cooler.
No, I wasn't allowed when I was a kid! I'm really sad about it, because I feel like even if I went back and read them now, I've missed the experience of being in the first generation to grow up with Harry. I'm thinking it might be worth looking into the books anyway, though.
