Man and Cyberman Memoirs of a Cyberleader

Available to order from www.telos.co.uk

DAVID BANKS has played many parts, but none so demanding as the Cyberleader. Despite leading roles in theatre and many appearances on TV, including long stints on Brookside and Canary Wharf, despite the plays he has directed and authored and the books he has written, despite creating a highly successful client management system called AgentFile – despite all this, the Cyber Race will not let him go.

On television as Cyberleader in BBC TV’s Doctor Who, on stage in The Ultimate Adventure fighting the Cybermen as the mercenary Karl and as the Greenpeace Doctor, as voice artist on The ArcHive Tapes and many other audiobooks and dramas exploring the Cyber world, as author of best-selling sci-fi novel Iceberg and the trailblazing book Doctor Who – Cybermen, he has been pulled back again and again into the Cyber orbit.

In Man and Cyberman David traces the arc of his life: what led him to be an actor, how he first became the Cyberleader and how escape has proved impossible. The recollections are his. They are the memoirs of a Cyberleader.
