Premise: The TARDIS takes the Doctor, Jamie and their new companion, Victoria to the world of Telos where they encounter an archaeological expedition in search of the long dead Cybermen.
Notes: Thought of as a classic by fans of the series, it features the introduction of both the Cyber Controller and the Cybermats. The latter of which were controlled by various means throughout the serial, some by wires, some by a wind-up feature, some by remote control and other were just simply shoved into the shot by the crew. It is the only serial from the fifth season to completely survived, also making it the only complete serial to feature Deborah Watling as Victoria.
Verdict: The scariest Cyberman story ever and one of the scariest Doctor Who stories ever, even the title gives you chills. The acting is great and you really worry and feel for these characters as you don't know who will make it out of there alive. The plot good but slips in the second half along with a lot of other things 9/10
