New Look For The Cybermen
The Cybermen return in 2013 for Neil Gaiman's stand alone episode for the 50th anniversary year story.
It seems the primary inspiration comes in part from those early
black-and-white Cybermen episodes, and partly from a decision from Steven Moffat to take these lifesize tin soldiers in a darker direction: “Steven
wrote to me and said, ‘Will you make the Cybermen scary again?’. And I
thought back to when I was 6 or 7 years old – ‘The Moonbase’, ‘Tomb of
the Cybermen’… I saw these when they were first broadcast.”
And
one of the creepiest things about their early work is that they did a
lot less stomping about like soldiers, and were kind of silent, blank
and eerie: ”Daleks went around going, ‘Exterminate’, and blowing things
up,” he said. “Cybermen were just… You look up and there’s a Cyberman.”
