Here's that movie Eric can't think of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eiv9Bhbsxfk
Oh, and after listening to the edit of this I realized that it's not entirely clear that we do understand that the Daleks are replacing the Doctor and his companions with replicants in order to execute members of the high council. What doesn't make sense is the other plot about Davros and the Movellan death virus also being located in the same place as the time corridor trap. Pick a plotline! --Eric
