Doctor Who: 9 Major Questions From The Series 9 Trailer

5. Are We Returning To Skaro?

The Daleks are returning in series 9, because it€™s Doctor Who and they€™re the Daleks, and we get a brief shot of them in the trailer. Later on we then see a planet that looks like it could well be a Dalek planet. Is this a return to Skaro, their homeland, or another, new planet that they€™ve settled on?

Skaro has only appeared in new Who once, back in season 7 opener Asylum of the Daleks (which introduced us to Clara). That was the first time it€™d been seen since 1996, and it only appeared fairly briefly at the beginning, and it hasn€™t been seen since. Could it be time for the Daleks to return home?

Otherwise, if it€™s still in too ruinous a state, have they taken over a new city, an event that may well lead to The Doctor trying to stop them?
