10 Biggest Events In Doctor Who That You Never Got To See

10. Davros And The Nightmare Child

Davros is the mad scientist from Skaro who created the Daleks during the Kaled-Thal war. An explosion in his lab resulted in devastating injuries that should have killed him, save for the chariot he rode in keeping him moving. He has a power to continue returning from either death or near-death experiences, as his encounter with the Nightmare Child will attest.

In the early days of the Time War, Davros encountered the Nightmare Child at the Gates of Elysium. This monster was the creation of the Dalek Emperor so, in a twisted way, it was the grandchild of Davros himself. While this has not yet been depicted on-screen, most likely due to the immense budget this would require, the Child was said to have jaws big enough to swallow Davros's ship whole.

So much of the Time War has occurred off-screen, for several reasons. Budget aside, there is simply so much to depict, from the Dalek's constant attacks on Gallifrey, to the Doctor contacting his former and future selves, to the destruction of the races who got caught in the middle of the Last Great Time War.
