About this listen

On a dark, frozen planet where no planet should be, in a doomed city with a sky of stone, the last denizens of Earth's long-lost twin will pay any price to survive, even if the laser scalpels cost them their love and hate and humanity.

And in the mat-infested streets, around teatime, the Doctor and Nyssa unearth a black market in secondhand body parts and run the gauntlet of augmented police and their augmented horses. And just between the tramstop and the picturehouse, their worst suspicions are confirmed: the Cybermen have only just begun, and the Doctor will be, just as he always has been, their saviour....

Written by Marc Platt and directed by Gary Russell.

Love it creepy and dark it’s good I’ve always loved watching dr who I recommend it

The 5th Doctor was grand.
Poor Nyssa screwed up. If only she'd needed the Doctor. Her attempt to change history only made it so.
The scene when Cyber-Yvonne was bittersweet. Nice how her family accept her. And Nyssa was sweet.
The cyber-character which I took more seriously was the Committee, the first Cyber-Planner. The voice was more chilling than the lower Cybermen; fitting its coldness such as when it denied Doctorman Allen's concerns due to zero morality, more machine than man.

A Chilling Cyber-Classic

A wondorous tale regarding the origins of the Cybermen, the fall of Mondasian culture, and the true horrors committed during the earliest creation of the Cybermen.

This story never fails to give me chills, the cruelty of these ruthless creatures, the Doctor's inquisitive, yet fearful mannerisms upon their landing, it all meshes together to create a true Doctor Who Horror Story.

Technophobia Incarnate.

So the cybermen design was a little bit to do with the doctor. With his influence on the Daleks as well perhaps the Doctor is the real menace. This was a really good and enjoyable adventure. Really like the story just a shame that it was not made into a screen version in this format. It would have rivalled genesis of the daleks as the greatest ever story

A great origin story

This was an interesting enough story to keep me interested from start to finish. The story focuses on mechanical life forms so it’s understandable that there is going to have to be some mechanical type speaking. The downside of that is that I found it very hard to follow exactly what these supposed machines were saying at times. In the context of the story I guess the producers would say “what do you expect? A story about mechanical devices is going to have mechanical sounds” which is true, but the big picture is this is a audio book and the overarching purpose is to listen to it and they should have found another way to keep the style but add clarity. Apart from that the performances were good and I don’t regret buying it as part of a audible deal.

Good
