Review of Part 1 & 2 By Christopher Callanan.

"The largest Dalek fleet ever assembled begins its invasion of the galaxy, heading straight for the Vega System. On planet Vega VI, Suz and Alby take their first, delicate steps towards romance, whiling away a lazy afternoon on the Marsh Lakes. But the Dalek onslaught is already under way.

Who is the mysterious stranger Suz finds amongst the devastated remains of Vega VI? What is Alby's secret? Can the Daleks' relentless advance across the galaxy ever be stopped?"

KALENDORF (Gareth Thomas): Enigmatic agent of the Knights of Velyshaa. Trained since birth in all the noble and martial arts of the Velyshaan Imperial Court. Secret mission on Vega VI interrupted by Dalek attack.


Gareth Thomas guest stars as the enigmatic Kalendorf. Gareth is, of course, best known as Blake from Blake's Seven, but it was his performance in McGann's audio debut Storm Warning which led to his casting in Dalek Empire.

Review of Part 2 By Judith Proctor.

Nick Briggs: 'Aside from being a brilliant actor, he's a thoroughly nice bloke.'

Gareth Thomas : 'It's an interesting character. He has a number of special qualities and is a knight in the old fashioned sense of the word, but in the first part he's acting rather against type... but all will no doubt be revealed as the story moves on.'

"Attention all humans! You are now subjects of the Dalek Empire!"

Suz decides it is time to take control of events. But when she is summoned to an audience with the Dalek Emperor, she begins to fear that all her efforts have been in vain.

Meanwhile, Earth Alliance Security commander-in-chief Tanlee is intent on locating Alby. The Dalek advance across the galaxy seems unstoppable and the only possibility of salvation for the human race lies in the Lopra System. But how can Alby help, when no one will tell him the purpose of 'Project Infinity'?
