‘Doctor Who’ 60th Anniversary Marathon – ‘The Tomb of the Cybermen’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Welcome to the first story of Season 5 in the classic ‘Doctor Who’ TV series! 🙂 This is ‘The Tomb of the Cybermen’, a four-part story where Patrick Troughton as the Second Doctor, Frazer Hines as Jamie and Deborah Watling as Victoria visit the planet Telos where the tombs of the Cybermen are. This story was considered lost for a while before it returned to the BBC Archives in 1992. You can watch ‘The Tomb of the Cybermen’ either on DVD or on Britbox.
