 Sure, I'll review all four parts 
 of "Doctor Who: Destiny of the Daleks" 
 based on the transcripts from the website you provided. 
 I'll evaluate each part in terms of narrative, 
 character development, pacing, and overall impact to rate them out of 10. 
  
 Part One 
  
 Summary: 
  
 The Doctor, now with a newly regenerated Romana, 
  arrives on a desolate, radioactive planet. 
  They soon discover it is Skaro, the home planet of the Daleks. 
  As they explore, they encounter a group of humanoid slaves 
  and mysterious android beings. The Doctor and Romana are captured 
  by the Daleks, who are searching for their creator, Davros, 
  to help them win a war against the Movellans. 
  
 Review: 
  
 Part One sets an intriguing stage by returning to Skaro, 
 the birthplace of the Daleks. The reintroduction of the Daleks 
 is effective, and the mystery surrounding the Movellans adds 
 an interesting twist. Romana's regeneration scene is amusing, 
 and the chemistry between the Doctor and Romana is strong. 
 The pacing is decent, although the episode primarily serves as setup. 
  
 Rating: 7/10 
  
 Part Two 
  
 Summary: 
  
 The Doctor and Romana discover that the Movellans 
 are locked in a stalemate with the Daleks, as both sides 
 rely on logic-based battle computers. The Daleks hope that 
 reviving Davros will give them a strategic advantage. 
 Romana is captured by the Daleks while the Doctor attempts 
 to locate and stop them. The Movellans offer their assistance, 
 but their true motives remain unclear. 
  
 Review: 
  
 Part Two deepens the narrative by revealing the nature 
 of the conflict between the Daleks and Movellans. 
 The strategic stalemate based on pure logic 
 is an interesting concept. The Doctor's infiltration 
 of the Dalek base and his interactions with Davros 
 are highlights. The tension is well-maintained, 
 and the pacing is effective, keeping the viewer engaged. 
  
 Rating: 8/10 
  
 Part Three 
  
 Summary: 
  
 The Doctor manages to awaken Davros, 
 who is initially disoriented but quickly 
 resumes control of the Daleks. The Movellans' 
 true nature as androids is revealed, 
 and their plan to use a nova device to destroy Skaro 
 is uncovered. The Doctor is caught between the two forces, 
 each seeking to use him to gain an advantage. 
  
 Review: 
  
 Part Three ramps up the stakes with the revival 
 of Davros and the reveal of the Movellans' true nature. 
 The Doctor's interactions with Davros are intense 
 and well-written, showcasing their ideological clash. 
 The episode effectively balances action and exposition, 
 maintaining a solid pace. The Movellans' plan adds 
 an additional layer of danger. 
  
 Rating: 8/10 
  
 Part Four 
  
 Summary: 
  
 In the final part, the Doctor thwarts the Movellans' 
 plan by using logic to confuse their battle computers. 
 He also manages to stop Davros and the Daleks 
 by rigging their systems to self-destruct. 
 The Movellans are defeated, and Davros is captured, 
 to be taken back to Earth for trial. The Doctor 
 and Romana leave Skaro, having once again saved the day. 
  
 Review: 
  
 Part Four delivers a satisfying and action-packed 
 conclusion to the story. The Doctor's use of logic 
 to outsmart both the Daleks and Movellans is clever 
 and fitting. The resolution of Davros's capture 
 is well-handled, and the episode wraps up the plot 
 threads neatly. The pacing is brisk, and the climax is thrilling. 
  
 Rating: 8/10 
  
 Overall Rating and Final Thoughts 
  
 "Destiny of the Daleks" is a strong 
 and engaging story that effectively 
 reintroduces the Daleks and Davros 
 while adding new elements with the Movellans. 
 The serial combines action, strategy, 
 and character development, creating a memorable narrative. 
 Here are the individual and overall ratings: 
  
     Part One: 7/10 
     Part Two: 8/10 
     Part Three: 8/10 
     Part Four: 8/10 
  
 Overall Rating: 7.75/10 
  
 The serial stands out for its clever plot, 
 strong performances, and the thematic exploration 
 of logic versus emotion. It is a fitting return 
 for the Daleks and a solid start 
 to the seventeenth season of "Doctor Who."
