      In short: I don't think that Amy and Rory were transformed to Cybermen.
      In long: Sit down, take a cup of tea, we are going deep in *takes a deep breath*
      "Wibbly wobbly, timey wimey" is a window in time that we can't define and which I will ignore. In the end it would add one or two years to the result. Source is mainly wikipedia.
      First of all we establishe the year Amy and Rory died.
      Amy meets the doctor as a seven-year old girl (in "The Eleventh Hour"). 5 minutes later or 12 years I guess, "Wibbly wobbly, timey wimey", she is 19 years old (7 + 12 = 19). This is in her kissogram phase. After the doctor test rides his new Tardis Amy got 2 years more in the waiting game (19 + 2 = 21) and is about to marry Rory.
      After a little bit time traveling with the doctor and Rory finally waiting 2000 years for his girlfriend in a Pandorica-Box to arrive and the reset of the whole universe.
      "Okay, kid. This is where it gets complicated.". I would suggest that the age didn't change much, so Amy is still 21.
      Some time goes by with Amy and Rory traveling with the doctor, "Wibbly wobbly, timey wimey", (honeymoon, birth of Melody Pond, 2 Amy's in quarantine). He lets them live a normal life, until they meet again 2 years gone by (21 + 2 = 23)(in "The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe").
      After their divorce in "Asylum of the Daleks", they both get together and Amy hints that the doctor is for 10 years in their both lives. This can be defined at two starting dates, the first one would be the time when the doctor meets Rory for the first time in "The Eleventh Hour" or the time where Rory travels with Amy and the doctor together. I choose the first date, which would result in Amy being a few years younger, so (19 + 10 = 29). Rory is said to be 31 years old at the time of "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship".
      Now to the hard part. In "The Angels Take Manhattan" Amy and Rory were send back in time. According to the book which Amy wrote in the 1930s, the time she arrived would be 1925-1939 (this is a guess). 1946 they adopted their son. Amy died at the age of 87 and Rory at the age of 82.
      When Amy died at the age of 87 and was around 29 when she was send back in time, she would live around 58 years from the 1930s (87 - 29 = 58).
      1925 + 58 = 1983
      1930 + 58 = 1988
      1939 + 58 = 1997 (1 year after her birth according to an other source)
      1946 + 58 = 2004
      When Rory died at the age of 82 and was around 31 when he was send back in time, he would live around 51 years from the 1930s (82 - 31 = 51).
      1925 + 51 = 1976
      1930 + 51 = 1981
      1939 + 51 = 1990
      1946 + 51 = 2097
      Let's assume it was 1939 when they arrived, both would be dead by 1998. R.I.P you both.
      Secondly we state the date Brigadier Sir Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart died. Don't worry, it will be a short summary.
      According "The Wedding of River Song" he died 2011.
      Now that we have some points in time, we can see if Amy and Rory could be Cybermens in "Death in Heaven".
      We know that Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart became a Cybermen, that means Missy has to be arround 2011 to collect the mind of the people who are about to die.
      To collect Amy and Rory, Missy had to be in the time before 1998. Which would mean that she did travel in time and did set this all up before Harold Saxon. But when Sason died, would he not also be collected and uploaded? But that would cause a time paradox with Missy living.
      An other point is the brain that a Cybermen needs, without the brain a Cybermen is nothing more than a robot. So only recently passed away could be transformed to a Cybermen after the rain of "Cyberpollen".
      My last point why Amy and Rory are not transformed to Cybermen is a combination of the previous ones. Amy and Rory died in Manhatten (tombstones), Missy had to be at that time to set up the upload and conversion to Cybermen, this combination does not realy work out. It's more likely that they both did not became Cybermen.

    A concerning factoid about TARDIS’s-alongside the whole being living thinking beings-is that Time Lords are quite utilitarian with their treatment of them. New Types of TARDIS were being pumped out every few centuries leading up to the Time War, and most Time Lords would choose to upgrade and abandon their previous capsule once they had the option of a better one. The bond between TARDIS and it’s pilots is described as being very intimate, so it’s the equivalent of getting a mew dog and paying attention only to that one and putting the old one to pasture. While it’s still alive and fairly young. TARDIS’s have potential lifespans of thousands of years, though usually they’d live only for a few hundred before being replaced and decommissioned.
    Another thing-TARDIS personalities being more developed is mentioned at times to be a fault, due to “improper maintenance”. The reason the Doctor’s TARDIS acts anything like it does, is not only because of it’s advanced age compared to the newer models, but because the Doctor hasn’t been taking “proper” care of it for the better part of two millennia.

      There's also the slightly inconvenient fact that TARDIS's are supposed to be escape capsules and the Doctor's TARDIS is doing things it wasn't even designed to do. That poor old girl has been pinging all over the universe for millennia, she deserves a break. Definitely not to be crushed to death!

    Personally I always liked the Tardis fact revealed in one of the books, specifically the one detailing his death( too many years, don't remember the title ), that the Doctor's Tardis *_is_* the Doctor. They may have changed canon by now but originally the Doctor stole his Tardis from a museum, as who could use time machines was extremely regulated, where it was on display as an "antique" time machine that supposedly no longer functioned yet for some reason reacted to the Doctor there by allowing him to start his adventures. The book reveals at the end that as the Doctor came to the end of his cycle of regenerations and the Tardis had just enough energy left for one more jump through time he traveled back to the museum long before he first saw the Tardis there, set up the display plate and then used the last of his life force to recharge the Tardis so his younger self could find and use it. This explains why the Tardis appeared to have a will of its own at times( appearing and disappearing by itself, jumping to "wrong" times etc) whereas other "Tardisi" such as the Master's were just machines incapable of independent action and seemed oddly connected to the Doctor( "now where is that blasted box?" appears behind him like it's pranking him ), because unlike other time machines it was powered by a time lord's life force and specifically the Doctor's. Granted this was long before the episode mentioned in this video that stated all time machines are alive and I'm sure not considered canon now though personally I like this explanation much more.

It might be a "nice detail", but nothing more than that. Stuff with Amy and Rory being turned into Cybermen and coming out of their graves is a little bit more disturbing than lots of dead copies of the Master burried under earth.

    If ever there were a video to show to someone to say, "This is why you should watch this channel" - here it is. The writing was on point, amusing and thought provoking. The editing was... well done, just well done. I smiled quite a few times just at what I was seeing onscreen.
    And the presentation was so natural I thought you were speaking from the heart rather than reading a script. I've often said that my favorite actors are my favorites because I couldn't tell when they were acting. In this video, I couldn't tell.
    So, if that thing with the video games is true, I am a mass murderer. Although unless a doctor (Timelord or not) can figure out a way to reverse whatever is wrong with my hand, the future for pixelated lifeforms looks a bit brighter.
    If all the corpses in history were converted to Cybermen, and you believe in the idea of past lives, that's got some interesting implications. I'm around 78% on the believing side (memories I can't account for and all that), and if I've been kicking around as long as I think I have, I probably make up about 5% of the Cyberarmy myself. Sobering thought.
    "Certain friends" - The Doctor definitely knows when at least some of his closest companions will die. In the case of River, that was the whole point. It was the basis of their entire relationship. That's how Moffat wrote her: The closest companion the Doctor would ever have was the one whose fate he knew from the moment they met. Doctor Who is often a light-hearted show, being after all a kids show at heart, but scattered in amongst the mirth are some truly, exquisitely, heartbreakingly, beautiful moments (three "hearts" in one sentence; top that). And no one did it better than Moffat, all to a Murray Gold score that could tear your soul right out, and that is a hill I'd be willing to die on, were such a thing possible.
    P.S. they only let me give the video one "like".

    Another interesting question would be if 8's most significant change in outfit can be linked to the regeneration from 13 to 14 where the clothes change as well. If the Doctors subconciousness can manifest different clothes that break away from what is expected... Why not IRL?
    The Doctors not all wear the same robe : 7 already diversifies by not wearing the dotted fabrique. 8ths wardrobe stands out the most. Moreso, while wearing the same or similar robes, 3:36 I think the notion that 1, 5, 6 and 7 have the same body is 'rubbish'. Along with their faces, they all have different posture as well.
    Looking back on the complete scene, notice how first 1 holds his lapels, 6 moves his hands down and rests them on his legs, in which pose the Doctor remains throughout the following shape shifts. Including 8. It is only jumbled up a bit during a quick shift to 1 later, were he has his hands back up again.
    It's the same person, different incarnations that are not all in uniform.

    This video is overthinking the reason why Paul McGann’s Doctor isn’t wearing a robe.
    I was recently at a Comic Con where Sylvester McCoy explained that McGann couldn’t be there for filming so he was shot somewhere else other than the Doctor Who studio and they weren’t able to get a robe to him (I’m assuming he already had his costume for some reason). They had to account for this in the script by having a brief jokey remark about it.
    I also think that too much is being read into The Brigadier’s death here. I don’t think the 7th Doctor was necessary speaking from a personal knowledge of how The Brigadier was going to die at all. More that was a statement of how he didn’t think he would end up dying at the hands of The Destroyer and that this wasn’t the death he’d wanted for his old friend. It’s not that he knew exactly how the Brigadier would die.

    You misunderstand the Doctor's speech about him dying in bed. If he KNEW the Brigidier dies in bed, then he wouldn't believe him dead here. No, he was referring to the fact that Brigidier Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart had been retired, then pulled out of retirement for the incident in Battlefield. The Doctor had been referring to their earlier conversations regarding him and his retirement, his life with Doris, and so on. It had nothing to do with pre-knowledge.
    Also, the Doctor HATES endings, and therefore does not read the ending of anyone or anything.

      yeah, largely because that’s just not what a video game is.

They would know that their purpose was to manage the illusory scene. So a GTA game wouldn’t be going “oh my god, i’m about to get run over ahhhh” it would be going “ok, he’s going on a rampage. let’s play those terrified running animations, cue the scream sounds, yes good, now bring in the cops, ooh nice dodge, he’s getting better at this. now let’s spawn a tank, but not too near, he’s only at four stars yet” etc

The soldiers are Galifreyan, but may not have been elevated to the status of a Time Lord.

    1. Wrong! Veritas wasn't just a video game like what we play every day for leisure, it was a sophisticated simulation by the Monks to see how their invasion of Earth would go. It's the difference between us playing, say, CounterStrike and our reality being an emulated simulation (as theorized).
    2. Yep, that's a small, dark plot point that got overlooked. For added grimness, you know that mixed human/cat family, the woman who had the kittens? There's a sequel story in IIRC the magazine that has her converted into a cyberman during an invasion. So, grim all around.
    3. Nice bit of world-building there, yeah. :)
    4. It's also likely that as a near-human species (they were mutated from the human baseline to be priests for the future Church), those killed would likely have become "cyberdears" under Missy, if any bodies remained.
    5. The red screen part is edited out of the broadcast sent, so all they would've seen is the dalek facing him and... that's it. I suppose the implied death would've been enough for closure? Weird.
    6. Dead bodies being reanimated is a common thing, apparently. To aliens and other entities, it's just meat to be used, and that's probably what the Doctor meant. Even the vampires, as another example, in the setting have different "origins", from the Great Vampires and their minions to aliens basically converting humans into more of their kind (the Venice episode).
    7. Yeah, this was a grim-dark moment that was overlooked by a lot of people, myself included. Jackie never knew why Pete did what he did for decades. She was left wondering, in limbo.
    8. This never even occurred to me until now. When they died, their consciousnesses would've been uploaded to the Nethersphere, likely had their emotions deleted, and then were stuffed back into their cyber-converted corpses. All the one-off companions or characters we've seen that died on Earth, too? Like the victims of the Weeping Angels, e.g. Sally Sparrow's friend. Cybermen. That's dark even for nuWho.
    9. Just blame bad writing, bad directing, and bad acting -- basically Chibnall and Jodie together. Those two have been a disaster for Who as a whole.
    10. That was more of the Doctor's wishes for his friend's future than his actually knowing their deaths. You're way off-base on this one: Unless the Doctor went forward and learned of a companion's death for sure, he doesn't know when they're going to die.
    Edit: And, for one not mentioned in this video, the Alternate Jackie/Cyber-Jackie actually spared Pete and Rose because she recognized them. Her saving them was under the guise of "their being rewarded" at Cyber-Control. She could've just ordered one or both into the chambers, but she had them taken away.
    As for why? Who knows. Maybe it was the last shred of humanity in her acting out.
    The newly converted Cybermen in that episode were also standing around and talking to one another, like how they would have as humans (see the way they grouped around conversion chambers); it's only in Army of Ghosts and Doomsday that we see them use remote communication to contact each other.

      And frankly I don't give a damn what you think is "blatantly wrong and nonsensical".
      In less than a few years since Chibnall and Jodie started their runs, nuWho's ratings and viewership numbers have sunk harder and deeper than the Titanic.
      At one point, a rerun of an old game show (I think it was Wheel of Fortune?) had higher viewership numbers than a new episode premiering on BBC 1!
      Chibnall's pitch to the BBC's higher ups for his time on nuWho was to "deconstruct" the entire show's mythology.
      He succeeded in the most terrible of ways, and as such Doctor Who as a whole, not just nuWho, is basically being considered a dying brand.
      Why do you think they're bringing Tennant and Tate back for a few specials? It's to try to drum up hype, interest, and viewership by appealing to people's memories of nuWho's golden age.
      You may not want to believe it, but those two have damaged nuWho severely.
      Russel has a lot of work on his hands to try to salvage this mess.@@DrWhoFanJ

    Okay. A few debunks or potential flaws in the logic. 1: Do we actually know there isn't an antidote for the drug known as "forget? 2) Why would someone forget a dead "silence?" Making someone forget in Dr Who is a psychic thing. Dead critters tend not to be psionicc. Also that's not that species name. Thew Silence is the group they worked for. 3) How long had Rory and Amy been decomposing when Missy started grave robbing? I doubt there was enough brains left for it to have bothered them much. 4) Does the Doc know how long he has with any companion? No. 1st Law of Time. Also Wibbley Wobbly Timey Wimey. I would guess that there would be RARE occasions when he might inadvertently have some clue. But 1LoT sor5t of makes messing with your past or future a very bad idea. Spoilers are avoided for a reason. And Wibbly...time makes everything an in flux potential outside of a few "fixed points in time." So, no he/she probably doesn't often have any clue.

    Revolution of the Daleks is where Chibnall's writing fails in the same way in does in Arachnids in the UK. The Doctor because of their distaste for Guns I assume the Doctor as forgotten the times they used firearms when needed in Classic Who. But the Doctor because of their distaste for guns decides it's more "humane" to lock the spiders in the panic room to either suffocate, starve, or be victims of cannibalism vs a quick death by a bullet. Yeah, that's much more humane Doc.

    You are kind of wrong about Pete's death. Wasn't a suicide. The car was going all around, meant to hit him regardless. So, he sacrificed himself in that brief alternate time to save his family. So far as anyone knows, he died in a tragic accident. Walking across the street to go to the church and get hit by the car. Destiny restored.
    As for the Doctor knowing when his companions die, its true. At the end of the 10th doctor's run he got his "reward". He went to each of his friends and saved them, or helped them. Saved Martha and Mickey from being killed by a Sontaran. Saved Sarah Jane Smith's son Luke from being killed. exc.

    The only way I can think why The 13th Doctor killed that Tardis is...maybe...that Tardis willingly sacrificed itself to deal with the Dalek threat at the time? That's the only one that makes some sense as to why she willingly killed a Tardis, even if it doesn't make it any less morbid of a thought.

    9. I thought the forget made them forget about the motorway and how everyone on the first lane were killed by the Macra.
    8. Big Finish have released an audio series where classic Doctors (so far, every Doctor 3-8 have been used at least once) encountering enemies introduced onscreen in the revived series. In it's second volume, The Fifth Doctor encountered some Racnoss who were being hunted by Time Lords. He actually saved a Racnoss queen from said Time Lords, whose ways The Doctor even outright said he had long since abandoned due to what they are.
    3. An offscreen source claimed that Adric ended up in the Nethersphere and Missy took great delight in the thought of having him converted. I have wondered if any other good people who knew The Doctor and ended up there also resisted the control over them (including Vicki, another companion of The Doctor's who had also died at that point after she stayed behind in Ancient Greece, and Katarina and Sara Kingdom, the first companions The Doctor lost in battle).
    1. People here have thought that when The Doctor told the Brigadier that, he was referring to how he saw he was supposed to die when he did not timeline wise. All the same, all of The Doctors have been stated as having attended his funeral.

      I know what you mean about the 1st Doctor but personally I don't like the idea of the first actor we ever saw playing the Doctor being the actual first incarnation of him (yes, *him* ). It just isn't a requirement. It also doesn't sit well with the original cannon that the Doctor was a young Gallifreyan (sp?) who was a sub-standard student, who stole a TARDIS because he found his traditional prospects unappealing.
      Similarly, I dislike the idea of the 13 incarnations limit to time lord's lifespans. Much better to my mind would have been an indeterminate number similar to the way humans become increasingly likely to die the older they live. This way, a time lord would have a 'reincarnation expectancy'. This would allow Dr. Who to run endlessly. As it's gone, the limit has resulted in writers having to bend-over-backwards to justify the Doctor continuing past 13 and this has led to the show becoming increasingly contrived. Not that I have much time for nuWho anyway.
