Synopsis


The once-feared Cybermen have disappeared from the universe without trace. An expedition from Earth arrives on Telos - homeworld of the Cybermen - to try and discover exactly what has become of the silver giants.

Soon after the Doctor, Jamie and Victoria join the archaeological party, the first mysterious death occurs. With the group now stranded on Telos, it becomes clear that the Cybermen may not be as 'dead' as it was first thought ...

Beneath the planet's surface, giant ice-tombs hold the last remains of the Cybermen in a frozen sleep. And someone is working to re-active them from their slumber ...

Background


Hailed as a classic by long-term viewers of Doctor Who, The Tomb of the Cybermen has always been shrouded in mystery and treated with awe by the programme's fans. No doubt, this is due to part of the story having gone missing from the BBC's TV archive of Doctor Who adventures. In 1992, all four episodes of this once-lost classic were miraculously found at a TV station in Hong Kong, and returned to the BBC. The question then was, would the story live up to the expectations created by its absence for almost two decades?
