The TARDIS is lured to Earth, London, 1985 by an alien distress signal. Investigating, the Doctor and Peri stumble upon an attempted bank robbery staged through the London sewers by a familiar foe – ex-Dalek agent, Lytton. But who is he working for this time?

For they soon discover there is something far nastier lurking in the sewers – Cybermen.

Why do the silver giants need a time machine? What is their devastating plan of attack? And what does it have to do with a catastrophic event that happened long ago in the Doctor’s past?

    i was looking on amazon in late january 2009 and i saw the front cover and liked the shade of blue (and i had enjoyed Earthshock previously) so i thought, why not buy it? it is a great story but not a must have in my opinion.

    This episode is a must! I really enjoy it and we have Maurice Colbourne (who gives a really special performance as Lytonn,reprising the role from Ressurection of The Daleks), Brian Glover (Alien 3, former wrestler, talented actor),
    Terry Molloy (Davros,(my personal favourite Davros) stunningly dramatic are his performances of Davros besides the ranting, now we get to see the man behind the make up and mask,). Believe me, you want to see these three performing as a gang of well written bad guys.
