Doctor Who Nightmare In Silver Trailers / Pictures
Nightmare In Silver Next Time Trailer
BBC One on 11 May at 7.00pm to 7.45pm
Hedgewick’s World of Wonders was once the greatest theme park in the galaxy, but it’s now the dilapidated home to a shabby showman, a chess-playing dwarf and a dysfunctional army platoon.
When the Doctor, Clara, Artie and Angie arrive, the last thing they expect is the re-emergence of one of the Doctor’s oldest foes. The Cybermen are back

May 10th, 2013 - 7:25amI think The Nightmare In Silver should boost the ratings up this week, it’s on at 7:00, it’s one of the flagship episodes, and there’s been loads about it in the newspapers
Anonymous
May 10th, 2013 - 11:25amThe FA Cup final will wreak the ratings below 6 million again is my guess
Doctor Stu
May 9th, 2013 - 12:07pmWhat if the weird cyber headgear creates clones of the people who wear it and the clones are upgraded into cybermen?
DOCTOR WHO ONE
May 9th, 2013 - 6:09pmGood thinking 😉 That would make sense of the fact that there appears to be 2 versions of the 11th Doctor, with one the Cybertechnology on one side of his head, and not on the other one.
Doctor Stu
May 10th, 2013 - 7:58pmThanks
I’m really looking forward to this episode, especially the next time trailer for the Doctors name

May 8th, 2013 - 7:54pmhas anyone noticed that on the next time trailer at 0:18 the cyberman on the right is very oddly shaped
Anonymous
May 8th, 2013 - 9:26pmYes.
LEWIS
May 9th, 2013 - 4:38pmYes it was the one on the right it’s nogin looked wired HIS right arm was slightly pulled out and you know the black bits on it’s middle they look pulled up 🙂
TheDoctorGallifrey
May 11th, 2013 - 5:19pmI don’t want the new ones to be cybus, but maybe the oddly shaped one was an experiment for the new one?
Da Big Friendly Button
May 8th, 2013 - 9:00amMy theory for this episode seems to be that if the cybus cyberman beats you in a game of chess then you are upgraded, but if you win then you either take his place or the cybermen shut down.
Daryl
May 8th, 2013 - 1:35pmYes I am thinking along thise lines too.

May 9th, 2013 - 7:27amluckly theirwith a chess playing dwarf then!
lepter
May 7th, 2013 - 10:38pmWhy are we still saying that the cybusmen are really mondasian cybermen just because the logo on the chest is missing. THEY ARE IDENTICAL, logo or not. Mondasian cybermen do NOT look like cybusmen. Why would they? They are from a different universe, they are totally human when mondasian were not, (excepting cyber conversions)
Lets have an updated earthshock cyberman…or let the new ones be mondasian…from our universe, (or are they going to be like the tellytubby daleks with just a suit upgrade. Give up with the cybus!!!
Dalek The Supreme
May 8th, 2013 - 3:51pmSteven Moffat has said the Cybusmen will not be appearing while he’s in charge.
a sane person
May 8th, 2013 - 3:54pmthe cybus cybermen and the mondasian cybermen could have met and the mondasian cybermen could have knicked there design. as with everytime we sure the mondasian cybermen they looked diffrent. so why not?
lepter
May 8th, 2013 - 10:17pmjust think its cheap. It was a money saving thing. The mondas cybermen have history. Cybusmen dont. To say that the mondas cybermen just decided to copy the paralell cybusmen is just, well, a swizz. Hope the new cybermen do the alien justice. Still, after seeing what moffat has done with the silurians and the sontarans, I dont hold much hope. I fear to say it but maybe dr who needs a break. I have 50 years of classic who to keep me going till it comes back.
Doctor Stu
May 7th, 2013 - 10:23pmI love these pictures, expescially the poster with the two Doctors and the Cybermen in the background!!!

Doctor Stu
May 7th, 2013 - 7:13pmI know people say that when the Cyberman stomp you can here them coming from far away but I love the cyber stomp. There’s something chilling about it that just sends a shiver down the spine. I’m going to miss it….
random user
May 7th, 2013 - 8:07pmactually they might still have it. another article i read said that they will still make noise when they move.
Doctor Stu
May 7th, 2013 - 8:21pmI hope so
Esterath
May 7th, 2013 - 8:56pmI hope not. They’re more chilling when you don’t know they’re behind you.
Dalek the Supreme
May 7th, 2013 - 9:20pmI agree with Esterath
The Flying Shark
May 7th, 2013 - 7:01pmThere is a feature about this episode in this week’s Radio Times.

May 7th, 2013 - 4:59pm2 doctors?
random user
May 7th, 2013 - 8:10pmi think the other is a cyber-doctor.
the astronaut of death
May 7th, 2013 - 4:08pmi think the reason peapole have been going missing is because the peaple who own the park work for the last cyberman and the cyberman needs new peaople so he can make a new race of cybermen so the cyberman makes the owners take people who are visiting the park hostage so he can make new cybermen
Bailey fan
May 7th, 2013 - 1:56pmA cyberman can run!?! What the hell
DOCTOR WHO ONE
May 7th, 2013 - 3:15pmI know, I’m not keen on the idea of Cybermen capable of running either, it just seems so wrong.
the astronaut of death
May 7th, 2013 - 4:09pmi like it i think it makes them more scray and animal like
thedaleksdeath
May 7th, 2013 - 4:40pmWell they did sort of jog in the Tenth Planet so it kinda is a Tenth Planet sort of thing
random user
May 7th, 2013 - 8:19pmat least they can’t fly like a dalek.
Dalek the Supreme
May 7th, 2013 - 9:22pmCybermen seem more into marching, but I’m not particularly adverse to the idea of them running, as two Cybermen ran in Attack of the Cybermen. At least they don’t fly like Daleks…I hope…

May 11th, 2013 - 12:02amWhat is the difference !!!!!!!!

May 6th, 2013 - 9:56pmI think I have a theory of why most of the episodes that we have seen have been ‘good’, ‘average’, ‘bad’or ‘boring. This is so that everyone will be anticipating for the 50th Anniversary and so when we see it, it will seem like the best ever episode due to the mediocre episodes we have seen prior to it. The BBC are probably doing this so that all the hype for the 50th Anniversary will not seem just average or playing with fanboys’ hopes.
Dalek the Supreme
May 7th, 2013 - 9:23pmI thought Cold War, The Rings of Akhaten, and The Crimson Horror were amazing, to be honest.

May 6th, 2013 - 5:45pmI love that picture at the top which has 2 doctors and the old and new cybermen. Just made it my computer wallpaper.
Will there be a poster of it available soon?
The 14th Doctor
May 6th, 2013 - 5:40pmMy theory:
New Cybermen: Fairground experience gone badly wrong
Old Cybermen: Exhibitions, maybe woken up once the fairground Cybermen overthrow the theme park.
Dalek Smith
May 6th, 2013 - 5:16pmi wonder if these cybermen will be vulnerable to gold
MaxP
May 7th, 2013 - 1:16amI sure hope not, it was the lamest plot device ever.
Dalek the Supreme
May 7th, 2013 - 9:24pmWould be a nice nod to the 80’s Cybermen (My favorite versions)
Dalek Smith
May 6th, 2013 - 5:12pmi think that whoever is owner of the theme park is being controlled by the mondas cybermen and that the chessboard is an intelligence test, whoever can beat the cybus cyberman creates a new race of cybermen becoming their leader (a bit like tomb of the cybermen let me know what you think)
DALEKSKITTLES
May 6th, 2013 - 2:44pmDo you think the new cybermen would be able to kill a dalek this time?
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
May 6th, 2013 - 4:29pmit depends who you want to be better than the other i suppose.
Dalek the Supreme
May 7th, 2013 - 9:26pmWho knows? We never may see them fight again onscreen. Keep in mind the Daleks were also been upgraded in 2010, so it might still be the Daleks who’d win. Until otherwise seen, I’m guessing the new Cybermen would be able to destroy a Time War Dalek, but would be destroyed without too much hassle by a Paradigm Dalek.

Tardis’nt
May 6th, 2013 - 9:37amMY THEORY
I think that the old cybermen (cybus) are exhibits at the theme park and don’t do anything, whereas there is ONE live mondasian cyberman (the damaged one with rings) and this is the LAST CYBERMAN (Hence the old title)this cyberman then tries to get the doctor and Clara but fails. So then he goes and converts himself into a more efficient model in his tombs which are in the theme park as a 3D backdrop for the cyber exhibits. This cyberman RUNS and converts the army people and the owner (mr hedgewick?). Warwick Davies escapes and the doctor has no choice but to let the cybermen go as they are far too powerful for him to deal with.
Doctor Stu
May 6th, 2013 - 9:52amYeh that’s what I think, I think they are exhibits that don’t do anything hence the Cyberman at the chess board and the two Cybus Cybermen standing and not moving. I think that the people are converting themselves also
Imaginethatnodoor
May 6th, 2013 - 9:29am0:17. Looks a lot like a moonbase cyberman
TheDoctorGallifrey
May 5th, 2013 - 8:17pmI wonder what those mechanical devices on their heads are

May 5th, 2013 - 10:00pmSame mind control maybe
DOCTOR WHO ONE
May 6th, 2013 - 8:38amPossibly Doctor Who’s take on the early stages of being assimilated into a Borg Drone, where once the Borg inject you into the neck with Nanoprobes, you start to develop Cybernetic implants all over your body that in the case of most implants appear through your skin, only in this case, it changes you slowly into a Cyberman.
Take a look at the guy who says “Hail to you the Doctor, saviour of the Cybermen”, you’ll notice that by the time he says that, he has more of a Cyberman teardrop eye then he does earlier on the in the story from what can be seen in both trailers.
TheDoctorGallifrey
May 6th, 2013 - 9:15amInteresting, dr who 1! That actually could be it!At first I thought it would be used similar to an eyedrive but this theory seems more possible!
DOCTOR WHO ONE
May 6th, 2013 - 9:08pmWell old Paramount did rip-off the BBC when they created the Cybermen copycats the Borg for ‘Star Trek – The Next Generation’, so if they are trying a Doctor Who version of Borg assimilation techniques then I guess it’s the BBC’s revenge for having a British icon copied for Star Trek.
It’s interesting to note also that, in the IDW Doctor Who / Star Trek – The Next Generation crossover, the Borg actually do regard the Cybermen as superior to them – YES !!!!!!!!! 😀
Still, the Borg are all dead now [except former Borg drones Picard and 7 of 9] since the final story of ‘Star Trek – Voyager’, and yet the Cybermen live on – FOREVER !!!!!!! 😀
MaxP
May 7th, 2013 - 1:22amWere the Cybermen the 1st cyborg type characters ever created in popular fiction/entertainment? Their were probably olf b grade sci fi movie characters who were half robot in the 50’s, but were they the first to actually be named with the ‘cyb’ part in their name?
Doctor Stu
May 5th, 2013 - 6:47pmWhen the 10th Doctor is in the library with Riversong and he said there was only one time that I could have told you my name, what if he appears at the end of the finale and tells river and saves everyone and then this leads onto the 50th anniversary
Dalek Smith
May 5th, 2013 - 3:10pmi think one of the kids will die
DOCTOR WHO ONE
May 5th, 2013 - 3:39pmWhat makes you say that ?. Just cos we see the girl being lifted on the back of a new look Cyberman don’t mean she’s or the boy are going to die.

I feel that nothing has been done for the 50th
