The Best/Worst Cliffhanger Endings
The Best Cliffhanger Ending
For me there's only one real contender for the best and that's the end of The Tenth Planet. It ushers in a whole new concept and leaves the audience wondering for a week. With no sodding preview to spoil it! Only for Cole Hawlings to appear ;-) Though I was very worried throughout The Stones of Blood. The lovely Romana was left hanging at the end of every episode. I still wish we'd had more Mary Tamm :-(
The Worst Cliffhanger Ending
I'll have to agree with something I read on a forum once, here. Every Dalek appearance at the end of episode one. Where the fact that Dalek was in the title made it very unsurprising. The one below was a goodie though. people didn't know what the Daleks were when it was shown.

I agree that the end of The Tenth Planet was, very definitely what, inaccurately these days, Moffat calls a 'game-changer'. In fact, it was the ultimate.
Not sure about the Dalek thing though. I see what you're saying but I can think of less impressive cliffhangers. I suppose by its very predictability is becomes boring but when I was a kid, knowing they would show up at the end was always a bit of a thrill.
