Confirmed for 2013: Cybermen and Stellar Cast
Confirmed for 2013: Cybermen and Stellar Cast
From the official site…
The Doctor will come face-to-face with some old enemies…
We can confirm that the Cybermen will be menacing the universe once again when Doctor Who returns for a run of eight epic episode in spring, 2013.The iconic enemies will feature in an adventure directed by Stephen Woolfenden and written by the acclaimed Neil Gaiman whose previous episode was the Hugo Award-winning, The Doctor’s Wife.
Starring Matt Smith as the Doctor and Jenna-Louise Coleman as the new companion, the episode co-stars Warwick Davis (Life’s Too Short and Harry Potter), Tamzin Outhwaite (EastEnders and Hotel Babylon) and Jason Watkins (Being Human and Lark Rise to Candleford) as a band of misfits on a mysterious planet…
Steven Moffat, Lead Writer and Executive Producer, told us, ‘Cybermen were always the monsters that scared me the most! Not just because they were an awesome military force, but because sometimes they could be sleek and silver and right behind you without you even knowing. ’ He added, ‘And with one of the all-time classic monsters returning, and a script from one of our finest novelists, it’s no surprise we have attracted such stellar names as Tamzin, Jason and Warwick.’
You can check out Cyber-galleries and enjoy clips from Cyberman stories in their very own Cyber-section or revisit Neil Gaiman’s previous Doctor Who adventure by watching interviews with the writer and clips from The Doctor’s Wife.
The Cybermen last appeared in 2011’s Closing Time but debuted in 1966 opposite William Hartnell’s Doctor in the classic The Tenth Planet. Over the years they have proven constant in their attempts to terrorise the Time Lord, invade our planet and destroy humanity… Secrecy surrounds all future adventures but we can’t wait to find out more about the Cybermen’s latest deadly gambit!
Doctor Who returns on December 25th for the Christmas Special and is back for a run of eight episodes in spring, 2013.

November 13th, 2012 - 12:54amJust do what I did; just type in Cyberman & click on the “Newest” setting on the side. You’ll know it when you’ll see it.
McGann is the Doctor
November 12th, 2012 - 10:09amGreat news they finally got the things redesigned, that 2006 design has been done to death, good as it was.
I will try and avoid spoilery pictures of the new Cybermen for as long as I can 😉

November 11th, 2012 - 10:34pmWell a good DVD shop will do it for 2/3 quid. But if it’s a bad scratch it’s not 100% fixed.
Esterath
November 11th, 2012 - 10:07pmHow? I need the Green Death and The Talons of Weng-Chiang fixed.
The Supreme Dalek
November 11th, 2012 - 10:04pmLol, we all disagree with each other. 😆
Don’t get me wrong though, I think these new designs are great, but I’m terrible with new stuff. I usually hate them at the beginning.
My favourite design is one that I can’t remember the name! It could have been the Earthshock Cybermen, will look it up at some point to check it out. 🙂
Chris
November 11th, 2012 - 9:54pmWell if a disc scratches you can fix it by getting it resurfaced

November 11th, 2012 - 5:47pmGood Luck to Colin in the jungle tonight ! I got much faith in him XD
Esterath
November 11th, 2012 - 5:44pmYes.
Esterath
November 11th, 2012 - 5:32pmThe classic Cybermen were the best!!!! I LOVED the Tenth Planet ones. So chilling!
doctorwhoone
November 11th, 2012 - 4:44pmIs it on Deviant Art ?. If it is then please do let me know so I can look it up 🙂
That Whovian over there
November 11th, 2012 - 3:20pmI assume you’re talking about The Tenth Planet Cybermen…?
I must disagree though. The Cybusmen were far too robotic. There wasn’t really a sense that they were once like us. 🙂
The Supreme Dalek
November 11th, 2012 - 2:18pmThe cybusmen were awesome! At least better than the Classics, especially that weird looking one that look as if its head was wrapped with tissues. 😆
Mr Evil Fez
November 11th, 2012 - 2:00pmThat’s cool!
Esterath
November 11th, 2012 - 12:36pmMy Cyberman redesign picture is up!

November 11th, 2012 - 9:45amOh right because in TPO the Cybermens Chest set had that Cybus Logo on it I thought that was the last time we saw them but it was TND
The supreme
November 11th, 2012 - 9:24ami agreee 🙂
DarkKnightDalek
November 11th, 2012 - 9:17amI think the new Cybermen look ok. They are not the best BUT they do look like the classic cybermen a bit thats why i am ok with this design it’s nice to have a change becuase it does get boring most of the time.I like the new CM more than the silly looking teletubbies Daleks

November 11th, 2012 - 9:16am😀
That Whovian over there
November 11th, 2012 - 8:51amThe Cybermen seen in TPO were not Cybus ones, they were Mondasian. If I’m right, they were meant to be redesigned but there wasn’t enough money to do so. 🙂
I do agree with Esterath though. The Cybusmen were absolutely awful – especially that stomping noise they made 😉

November 11th, 2012 - 8:25amThe New Designs are ＥＰＩＣ! They should of been in A Good Man Goes to War and Closing Time expect those older designs.
Dalek Sec
November 11th, 2012 - 7:44amI agree, I think the new designs are awesome, but the chest plates are a bit small.
Esterath
November 10th, 2012 - 11:20pmThe Cybusmen are terrible.
The Supreme Dalek
November 10th, 2012 - 11:08pmWhat? I must be losing my mind! People seriously prefer this, new Cyberman design? Ugh, I must say, it’s not terrible, I like it, but I expected something more. And I feel as if suddenly the Cybus ones are suddenly underrated. 😐
