RTD and David Tennant quit Doctor Who. Series to end... but not quite.
Agamemnon
Doctor Who at the end of series 4. They also report that according to
rumours which RTD will neither confirm of deny the 10th Doctor will give up
his 3 remaining regenerations in order to save Donna, Martha and Rose. They
also confirm that Paul McGann will star in 4 full length (the don't say what
that means) Doctor Who specials with the first airing at Christmas and the
rest in 2009. There is no mention if they will have anything to do with the
Time War but they say that the specials which will all be produced and
co-written by Stephen Moffat (no mention of who with) and will follow the
8th Doctor's adventures through to his regeneration into the 9th Doctor.
They also say the part of the 9th Doctor has not yet been cast but there
will be a 5th series in the Autumn of 2010 where he will feature.
My impression is that the Doctor will go back in time and change his own
past. When asked questions Richard E Grant confirmed that the he and the BBC
had discussed a new leading role that he had been offered but he refused to
say what the part was.

You seem remarkably sure about all this - are you certain you're not
the BBC? :-) This is the first I've heard of a new Cybermen story,
though despite the poor quality of their last outings I'll look
forward to it since I like Cybermen - presumably these will be 'our'
Cybermen unless something in the story that brings Rose back also
brings Cybermen and Daleks back from void space.

Some of the old Cybermen were gay too. I know that's a shock for you, as
you think RTD started homosexuality, but that's life. The new Cybermen

Indeed they do.
But a "classic" cyberman head was seen in 'Dalek', and referenced in the
first 'new' cyberman episode. - "our" cybermen (that is to say, cybermen
from the regular whoniverse) are still 'out there', and should, at some
point, be encountered. If / When this happens, yes, they'll need an
update, but the should not lokks like the 'alternate' cybermen we've

Only they're not "still out there" -- they're extinct. That's why we

They'll be updated but not too dissimilar to the alternate Earth Cybermen.

You know this how?
I assume it's a guess (It's a guess I'd be likely to share - if they
ever show up) but you state it as fact.
pbo...@aol.com
Don't believe it for a moment. I remember when ther Judoon were first
shown in previews, and people predicted that some presumed similarity
to Sontaran armour (a resemblance I can't see in any image of old-
series Sontarans I've seen) 'proved' the Sontarans were gone from Who
for good, turned into big space rhinos instead. And guess what the
very next season brings back?
Of course 'our universe Cybermen' will look like the Cybus ones,
presumably without the chest C, but there's no terribly clear reason
for believing any future Cyberstories will feature the parallel
universe variety - we've had two explicit references to the old
Cybermen in the new series and all the Cybus ones were disposed of.
Whatever brings Rose back might bring them back, then again it might
not.

In Rise of the Cybermen the Doctor says "There are Cybermen in our
universe as well", present tense. Of course they'll have the same
suits - this image is too indelibly associated with Cybermen at this
stage. But it seems more likely than not that the next Cyberstory will
feature Who universe Cybermen.

Monsieur Tabernac
I wonder if there will be some reference to the vague similarity in
uniforms/necklessness (such as the Sontarans originally colonized the
Judoon homeworld).
I just looked at the Wikipedia entry for the Sontaran story... Helen
Raynor is listed as the writer! Oh god help us. Sontarans in San
Francisco. (I really didn't like her Dalek story or the Torchwood
one... I really hope she improves this time.)

Do you think that's a sure-thing, or is that just an assumption
because they already have the costumes and don't want to spend money
on new ones (a very reasonable assumption that is, too).

Her story is that RTD wrote/rewrote the second part (despite her name

I agree with that, but that was more the combination of the romance
story with unconvincing leads. I'm not a fan of that kind of story at
the best of times, and it didn't help at all that the guest actor was
probably the most wooden Torchwood has used.

That, but mainly the brand recognition thing - even though they've
only been in a couple of stories, the image has been one of the most
heavily-marketed in the new series. That's what Cybermen look like in
the public consciousness, and these days probably to the majority of
fans. And in any case, what else would they look like? The current
batch are pretty much what any update of the old style would look like
- same basic heads, and the rest is just your basic sci-fi robot suit.

I really don't see this. Above all, RTD seems dedicated to simplicity, and
the idea of bringing in 'different' Cybermen would appear just too confusing
for kiddies and general audience. I'm sure he'd stick to just one brand of
Cybermen - the ones he 'invented'. If the Cybes do return, they'll almost
certainly be the alternates.
I hope I'm wrong - I hated the whole idea of bringing in the Cybusmen - but
I doubt it.

You mean when he said "the stuff of nightmares, reduced to an exhibit"?
I thought the implication was that they were another victim of the Time
Wars, ie. gone until someone invents a loophole through which to revive

The story I read was she admitted her second episode was a complete mess.
RTD was forced to practically re-write it and neither were entirely happy
with how it turned out. I also really enjoyed the first episode but found
the second a mammoth let down.

No more so than bringing in a "different" Mickey or Pete Tyler. It was
emphasised throughout their appearances that these Cybermen were from
an alternate universe, and the first story specifically referenced Who-
universe Cybermen. People are likely to have been more confused by the
Cyberman head in Dalek followed by the versions io Rise of Steel than
by Cybies without the chest plate.
Also, bear in mind that the first and to some degree the second
seasons were pitched at a new audience, and kept things simple. More
recent stories have worked on the basis that people will have caught
up - if the Radio Times is to be believed, The Sontaran Strategem is
designed as a direct sequel to their 1985 appearance, for instance.

Also on this subject, bear in mind that we have had three incarnations
of "Last Daleks", which appear to belong to two distinct 'breeds' -
reconstructed Daleks with human genetic material in the season 1
finale and 'pure' survivors of the Time War (Dalek, the Emperor Dalek,
the Cult of Skaro). But to all intents and purposes they are Daleks
and the casual viewer recognises them as such. There's no reason
Cybermen from different universes would be any different, although it
provides another possible reason for sticking to the same design.

I tend to agree with you Phil, however, like I've mentioned before the
introduction of a new Cyber design would make a packet for the toy industry

But wouldn't that impact on the sales of their current Cybermen? New
aliens are introduced in most episodes, and the toys etc. to go with
them all add up to profit, be they Slitheen, Ood or Sontaran toys.
They've no need to redo the Cybermen to add to their range any more
than they need to redo the Daleks every outing (though they can cash
in on the odd mutant Dalek or Emperor Dalek toy). As it is they'd
likely put out Cybermen toys without the C plate for the return of
'our' Cybies even if the rest of the design doesn't change.
