[Lewis Scott Childs]

His performance in the short was phenomenal. I always said that if we ever got to watch pre incident Davros, they need to give real thought to his presentation, and if the current actor would or could not do so like this, then someone of equal calibre would have to be found. Bleach was just as impactive like this as he was as traditional old Davros, but the fact that he is now meant to have only ever been like this completely undermines it.
If they are going to portray him as in the short they have to give a truly considered thought out explanation for it, not just say now he never went through any of what he did. Because then it might as well be another character entirely.
