Premise: The travellers land in London where they agree to help find computer scientist Professor Watkins and discover Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart is also investigating disappearances.
Notes: There was originally going to be a scene where UNIT rescued Professor Watkins from the IE car which was escorting him. However, it was cut because of the budget so another scene was written to replace it where Gregory (who would have been shot in the attack) describes the attack instead and is subsequently killed by the Cybermen.
Verdict: An amazing thriller with an great villain in Vaughn and another great performance from Troughton. It doesn't feel padded out at all, contrary to belief that it is overlong. Although lacking in Cybermen, the moments that do have them in are chilling and the music is really amazing all the way through and really does create a good atmosphere. This is the Cybermen's finest hour with only a few minor flaws here and there 10/10
