    Yeah so the article is about how the villain Davros (creator of the Daleks) will no longer be depicted as in a wheelchair and that's due to baggage from earlier in the show. The writers don't want it to seem like Davros is resentful of his disability and created evil space squid Nazis in revenge, since that could possibly send the wrong messages about disability. I get it. Don't really know how they'll manage this. Also Davros has died like 5 times already but keeps showing back up.

    One other show fan posted: 'My granddad was a disabled WWII vet, very self-sufficient despite being in a wheelchair & was also an activist for disability access; he wouldn’t have had a problem w/Davros since he’s a strong character who succeeded & overcame obstacles despite his disability!'

    I think this person is joking, or I hope so. Davros succeeded in creating evil genocidal cyborg goop monsters because he's space Hitler

      Davros wasn't really even successful, in Genesis of the Daleks the Daleks turn on him, and they continue to do that almost every time Davros appears.
