I love how all the cybermen breaks all of the doors and windows but the one that chased Jackie literally uses the door to the basement like a normal person.
The best, most tense moments, are when the Doctor is actually legitimately afraid. I.E. the first episode that a Dalek showed up, this one, and the angels.
How the recent Doctors have been: 9th Doctor - A party, fantastic! 10th Doctor - I love a party and a shop. 11th Doctor - A party, that's what human do right? 12th Doctor - You humans and your parties.

I love the tension of the old Eccleston/Tennant age. Matt Smith is fun but you feel that the episodes aren't as serious as they could be. A example of a Matt Smith episode that had an awesome feel was Cold War because of the cramped hide and seek feel.
"There's nothing we can do!" You gave up a *bit* soon there, didn't you, Doctor? I mean, most of the party guests were still alive as you fled with all the 'important characters'.
One of the very best Cyberman stories, up there with Earthshock, Tomb of the Cybermen and The Invasion. Don't care what self-appointed "purists" say about them "not being real Cybermen because they're not from Mondas". Point is, it was a story that tapped into current fears about dehumanisation through technology, which is precisely what the Cybermen have always been about.
TheValeyard92 This story was good but i wouldn't call it great. As i feel it was just a bit slow and tedious in too many aspects for it to be up there with earthshock and the invasion.
Illusionz Man Fair enough. Don't get me wrong, I do see that it has flaws, but a lot of people don't like it just on the grounds that they aren't Mondas Cybermen, which I disagree with, and I certainly don't think it's a bad story. You're right, it is definitely not as good as The Invasion. Few things are :)
TheValeyard92 For me, I really liked this story (especially the increasingly relevant themes presented) but dislike the motivations portrayed by the Cybermen themselves in the RTD stories especially. This idea that they see peoples' difference and pain and wishing to remove their suffering is not very Cybermen to me. The Cybermen have previously been all about simply extending their own existence without any regard for the feelings of others. I don't know if you've ever listened to the audio-dramas but the 5th Doctor story Spare parts and the 7th Doctor story Kingdom of Silver got across these concepts much better. The former story (essentially an origin story for the Mondas Cybermen) had them convert people because it seemed to them the logical course of action and the latter shows how utterly cold they are towards others, responding to a character declaring their name and status by stating that they were simply "raw materials". Again, I thought this was a great story, I just wasn't keen on the handling of the Cybermen themselves. This wasn't a big issue for me until their stories started getting worse, though (ironically, I much preferred their handling in The Next Doctor, but that conversely had a really weak story).
1:03 I love the detail that both people are being zapped because they’re holding each other, allowing the current to travel to the woman even though the Cyberman is just zapping the man
This is honestly my favourite cybermen era. The story is enjoyable in many ways possible. Their footsteps are always a classic to me and I always loved the way they talk.
Doctor: 'Oh no, we're doomed! It seems surrendering won't work! What do we do?' Cyberman: 'DELETE!' *Half a second later* Doctor *whipping out power cell*: Good thing this crystal thing conveniently sends out large amounts of energy which can fry Cybermen! We're saved!
So a man *asks* what would happen next, as it was a hypothetical question. (even though he obviously would've said no anyway) I guess the cybermen have 0% chill
My second favourite New-Who story. Epic throughout. It's always been one I've really enjoyed, and I remember 9 year old me playing with his Cybermen action figures in the garden recreating scenes like this. Ahh, good times. :D
These cybermen were the best, only when they were not scavengers. They had them in too many situations where these cybermen were weak, crashed and didn't allow us to see them in their prime at the top of their power, they were always portrayed as weak crash landed scavengers who always fail.
@@GoldenSunAlex Also I think it’s been canon since about their second appearance that they lost their major war with the human race more or less without the doctors help.
@@TheValeyard92I appreciate the whole “survival” angle, but we’ve gotten so many stories talking about how they were once this unstoppable empire with a (pardon the pun) iron grip on the universe at large. I’ve just always wanted to see stories that properly explore the Cybermen at their highest heights, a conquering army, like they were often described as once being in stories like _Revenge_ and _Earthshock._ I guess we sorta got hints of that in _Nightmare In Silver_ and _Acension,_ but those stories were so muddled and messy that it didn’t really leave any time for the concept to be truly explored.
Peak Cybermen story here tbh. Maybe I've got bias cause this was my generation growing up, but I've always felt that the early nu-who stories recaptured a lot of what made the early episodes in the 60s, so brilliant. The monsters were legitimately more terrifying here than they have ever been since.
NeoDragonCount Well they don't exactly go forever. Like in countless episodes when the Doctor or his companions runs and hides behind a wall or something, and the cyberman just turns away or keeps walking. They may be clever, but in terms of peripheral vision and common sense we beat them by a long shot.
I remember watching this the Saturday it came out and to this day these Cybermen are still in my opinion one of the scariest Doctor Who villains *EVER*
Cybermen are another metaphor of modern day people. We must obey, do not question, think in the box, no emotions no expression, be a slave, devoid of critical thinking, be a clone.
I remember my friend commenting: 'Lol, they can't even run. If you move at a steady jog, you can literally just outpace them.' To which I said: 'It doesn't eat, it doesn't sleep, it doesn't need anything you can offer it other than your life and it will never stop chasing you until its mission is complete. You can't outrun inevitability. How long do you think you can keep running from something like that? Whatever the answer is, it always results in: not long enough.'
they should really post the scene from the end of "The Big Bang" where the Doctor and River have that little conversation about River being married and River just keeps on replying with "Yes." that's probably one of my favorite scenes ever "Are you married, River?" "Are you asking?" "Yes." "Yes." "Hold on, do think I'm asking you to marry me, or, or, or do you think i was asking if you were married?" "Yes." "But was that 'yes', or 'yes?' " **whispers** "Yes."
I think that the cybermen refused to convert the guys in cybermen of multiple reasons. In Nightmare in Silver, it says that before (so then) only humans could be upgraded. Doctor was not a human. Rose and mickey were from a parrallel world, and because in the parrallel world the world was 2-5 years left behind, they were kind of primitive in technology. They also deleted the 2 soldiers because they tried to rebel which was too much to handle to know if they were incompatible. Don't thank me, I just got the facts right. ;)
the cybermen scared me when I was a kid and in some ways they still do. knowing that if you become one you loss everything about yourself and that what scares me about them, the daleks just strait up kill you but cybermen sometimes they kill you but if they get there hands on you well... your screwed!
I never understood why nobody ever brings up the massive plot contrivance that happens in this ep like seriously they move so slowly and have to touch you to kill you why not just walk around them >< just saying not hating, I love dr who
I find it cool how that when the doctor was starting to panic when the cybermen weren't accepting his surrender, to me its like hes realizing that these units dont care anymore if you surrender
2:47 DOCTOR: No! Stop shooting, now. We surrender! Hands up. There's no need to damage us. We're good stock. We volunteer for the upgrade program. Take us to be processed. CYBERMAN: You are rogue elements. DOCTOR: But we surrender. CYBERMAN: You are incompatible. DOCTOR: But this is a surrender. CYBERMAN: You will be deleted. DOCTOR: But we're surrendering! Listen to me, we surrender! CYBERMAN: You are inferior. Man will be reborn as Cyberman, but you will perish under maximum deletion. (The Cybermen hold out their deadly arms towards the group.) CYBERMAN: Delete. Delete. Delete!
Cyberman leader: You are rogue elements. Doctor: But we surrender. Cyberman leader: You are inconvertible. Doctor: But this is a surrender! Cyberman leader: You will be deleted. Doctor: But we're surrendering! Listen to me, we surrender! Cyberman leader: You are inferior. Man will be reborn as Cybermen, but you will perish under maximum deletion. Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete!!!
Notice that the Cyberman says "we are human 0.2" instead of "human 2.0". They think so little of human life that it doesn't even warrant a full version number to them.
Yeah maybe, that might be why they found him incompatible. But what would maximum deletion have been? Because at that time, the Cybermen didn't have the lasers on their arms, just an extra powerful shock?
The Cybermen used to scare me. I was 5 when this episode was out and seeing them electrocute people was scary. Their voice scared me and even though the sound of their stomping scared me.
Thank God for "World Enough & Time" and "The Doctor Falls". I don't think anyone can dispute that these two stories and the "Age of Steel" episodes are the best Cybermen stories in the entire New Who series. And the reasoning is quite simple; they simply reminded us an audience who the Cybermen are and why they were so terrifying in the classic show. It's a shame no other episode featuring the Cybermen has come close to meeting those standards (Granted, "Closing Time" was good but I enjoyed it for the comedy more than anything else)
***** Evidently not. NeoDragonCount I don't mind them using computer terminology in their speech. That's actually a fairly neat idea. It's the fact that they chant "delete" in the same manner that the Daleks chant "exterminate" that's silly.
Like I said. The term 'delete' works because to a cyberman, humans are the old model of humanoid. They are the upgrade. It makes sense they would see killing us off as 'deleting' rogue elements. But yeah, chanting it doesn't work. The Daleks have been established as warriors and probably slightly insane as they love to kill. That's why 'EXTERMINATE!' works so well. It gives us a terrifying warcry, and a tap into the sadistic mind of a Dalek. Cyber men have no emotions like the Dalek, so giving them a warcry is pretty useless.
I know the Doctor was only warning the President not to say no to the Cybermen, but his reaction was truly courageous nonetheless. Better to die fighting for independence than give in to the whims of a madman.
0:52 Look at the Cyberman on the left. His expression's all like "Only 298463 days until my vacation."
Lol
That's only 34 years!
xD

I can't tell if you mean "Dalek", or "The Daleks"- as in the second ever story of Doctor Who in December 1963

pretty sure they do need to 'eat' mate they're robots they need new batteries.
iTunes and Cybermen have so much in common... they always want to upgrade.
Do you know what it means when something chases you very slowly? It means there’s a reason they don’t have to run.
they should really post the scene from the end of "The Big Bang" where the Doctor and River have that little conversation about River being married and River just keeps on replying with "Yes." that's probably one of my favorite scenes ever
"Are you married, River?"
"Are you asking?"

"Hold on, do think I'm asking you to marry me, or, or, or do you think i was asking if you were married?"
"Yes."
"But was that 'yes', or 'yes?' "

Rose and mickey were from a parrallel world, and because in the parrallel world the world was 2-5 years left behind, they were kind of primitive in technology.

Cyberman leader: You are inconvertible.
Doctor: But this is a surrender!
Cyberman leader: You will be deleted.
Doctor: But we're surrendering! Listen to me, we surrender!
Cyberman leader: You are inferior. Man will be reborn as Cybermen, but you will perish under maximum deletion. Delete! Delete! Delete! Delete!!!
This has always been my favorite scene from the newer series
Notice that the Cyberman says "we are human 0.2" instead of "human 2.0". They think so little of human life that it doesn't even warrant a full version number to them.
Nothing can stop the perfect Cyberman.Exept the Doctor
Why was MAXIMUM deletion necessary, they could have just deleted them like the other guests, not like they had anywhere to run.
I think the Maximum deletion comment was directed toward the Doctor maybe they sensed he was not human.
Yeah maybe, that might be why they found him incompatible. But what would maximum deletion have been? Because at that time, the Cybermen didn't have the lasers on their arms, just an extra powerful shock?
"What do you mean, this is a surrender!"
"Delete, Delete."
"THIS IS A FREAKIN SURRENDER!"
"Delete, delete."
"I give up."
"What if I refuse?"
"Then you are incompatible."
"And what happens then?"
"You will be deleted"
the cyberman gave them like so many chances.
1:31 dat guys reaction doe
Nice bow tie Tennant. Bow ties are cool.
I like how the Doctor's experience with the Cyber-men shows, and he is legitimately afraid.
Possibly the best Doctor Who episode in history with The Age of Steel.
The Cybermen used to scare me. I was 5 when this episode was out and seeing them electrocute people was scary. Their voice scared me and even though the sound of their stomping scared me.
Jackie looked really good here in that outfit.
Thank God for "World Enough & Time" and "The Doctor Falls". I don't think anyone can dispute that these two stories and the "Age of Steel" episodes are the best Cybermen stories in the entire New Who series. And the reasoning is quite simple; they simply reminded us an audience who the Cybermen are and why they were so terrifying in the classic show. It's a shame no other episode featuring the Cybermen has come close to meeting those standards (Granted, "Closing Time" was good but I enjoyed it for the comedy more than anything else)
While flawed, I liked "Nightmare in Silver"
"I'm telling you, don't. They won't take no for an answer sir."
You see, Moffat? This is how you do a cliffhanger
The cybermen are truly terrifying
Great seeing Don Warrington who played Philip in Rising Damp as the president!! :D
Am I the only one here who hates the 'Delete' battle-cry?
not
You're not the only one who does. Same here.
***** Evidently not.
NeoDragonCount I don't mind them using computer terminology in their speech. That's actually a fairly neat idea. It's the fact that they chant "delete" in the same manner that the Daleks chant "exterminate" that's silly.
Like I said. The term 'delete' works because to a cyberman, humans are the old model of humanoid. They are the upgrade. It makes sense they would see killing us off as 'deleting' rogue elements. But yeah, chanting it doesn't work. The Daleks have been established as warriors and probably slightly insane as they love to kill. That's why 'EXTERMINATE!' works so well. It gives us a terrifying warcry, and a tap into the sadistic mind of a Dalek. Cyber men have no emotions like the Dalek, so giving them a warcry is pretty useless.
I know the Doctor was only warning the President not to say no to the Cybermen, but his reaction was truly courageous nonetheless. Better to die fighting for independence than give in to the whims of a madman.
