Converted Klingons were distinguished by helmets which matched the unique shape of the Klingon head, with extensions reminiscent of hair. She further explained that in The Tenth Planet it was hard to tell if they had skintone gloves or not to justify their addition. In an alternate timeline where the Cybermen utilised Borg technology to conquer both N-Space and the Federation universe, Cyber-converted Raxacoricofallpatorians sported bulbous Cyber-helmets which matched the Raxacoricofallapatorians heads. The Radio Times cover shoot of October 1973 turned out to be the key to why these monsters took a step backwards in their evolution on screen.

The opening montage for this feature was a collection of the studio shots, including that very Cyberman - pictured right. They found the remains of a humanoid face underneath the face plate, as well as numerous cables within the side handles that connected to the Cyberman's brain and chest. During a recent showing of the Documentary series " Doctor Who Revisited", I noticed a slide popped up which was used to represent "The Cybermen" from the 1960s (see above right). The costumes were built by freelance prop company Alister Bowtell, and were again based on wet suits, with rubber tubing along the arms and at the knees and elbow.When originally seen in The Tenth Planet, they had large energy weapons that attached to their chests. In an effect reminiscent of the earliest Cybermen's mouths snapping open while speaking, the new Cybermen have a blue light in their "mouths" (or "teeth") which illuminates in synchronisation with their speech. When they were absent from the TV series, they were more like real Cybermen than ever - with cannibalised components and patched up with repairs. Cyberman had also overcome the weakness of solely being able to convert human-like species; the Doctor had been safe from being in danger of conversion until this point. Partially converted on Telos, Gustave Lytton's head was supported by an incomplete Cyber-helmet without facial plating.

They appear in Human Resources, which Big Finish produced for radio BBC 7 and subsequently released on CD, and sees the Eighth Doctor averting a plan to take control of a new weapons system. The most obvious difference is an extra set of pipes down the rear of the legs however the controller costume also featured additional pipes across the collar bones. As they are relatively few, the Cybermen tend towards covert activity, scheming from hiding and using human pawns or robots to act in their place until they need to appear. I attached 2 versions; one with the "head pipes" separate- they'll print stronger that way, and one with the pipes.Neil Gaiman's episode " Nightmare in Silver" (2013) depicts the re-emergence of the Cybermen in the distant future, following what was believed to be their complete eradication by humankind. Having eventually removed all emotion from their brains (to maintain their sanity), the natives installed a drive propulsion system to pilot the planet itself through space. The Virgin Missing Adventures novel Killing Ground, by Steve Lyons suggests that some Cybermen imitate emotions to intimidate and unnerve their victims. Both sources concurred that the helmet originated from The Invasion, and the back of the helmet was left unfastened.

Before his conversion could be completed, Lytton was killed defending the Sixth Doctor from the Cyber-Controller. It seems likely that the shoot was arranged at the time pre-production was under way for Death to the Daleks which would begin shooting in November 1973. Unusually, in "The Age of Steel", the Cyber-Controller (John Lumic, played by Roger Lloyd-Pack) retains his voice after being upgraded, but it is still electronic. Although it wasn't necessarily directly connected, it was clearly part of the same story of these dormant costumes.

In " The Doctor Falls", the Doctor's companion Bill retains her complete sense of self and identity, even to the point of not initially seeing herself as a Cyberman, as a result of her experiences resisting mind control and telepathic suggestions in a past adventure. When I finally laid my hands on my copy, I was interested to see that yes indeed the same Mystery Costume had been used in the 1970 shoot but divided between two different Cybermen. What's particularly interesting about the story of these hybrid costumes is it seems they were influential in the direction the canonical Cyberman went.

Cybermen were not seen again until Earthshock (1982), in which the Fifth Doctor ( Peter Davison) encounters Cybermen in Earth in the year 2526. Some Cybermen in the early stories were even given individual names such as "Krang" (however these names only appeared in the cast listings for " The Tenth Planet" and were not spoken on-screen). Although Rassilon's insight allows the Cybermen to conquer history and defeat all of the past Doctors, the Twelfth Doctor is able to convince Rassilon to help him after the Cybermen betray Rassilon, the two turning the Cybermens' equipment against them so that the universe is 'regenerated' to a point before the Cybermen conquered Gallifrey, with only the Twelfth Doctor (and possibly Rassilon) remembering these events.

Costume designer Daphne Dare, consulting with Reid over the phone, took over midway through production of The Moonbase while Reid was recovering from surgery.
