Well you didn't expect Steven Moffat to do a full-scale invasion of Earth story without them, did you? Kate Stewart and her science-y assistant Osgood are back to lead the fight against the Cybermen with Osgood having swapped her Zygon-tripping scarf for a rather fetching bowtie since last year. More stylish but not as useful for taking out shapeshifting monsters. Jemma Redgrave and Ingrid Oliver (Kate and Osgood) were spotted filming on location in Wales with groups of Cybermen and UNIT Soldiers, and a gang of gun toting civilians. Which opens up all sorts of questions about who will end up fighting who. Lets just hope UNIT can handle the Cybermen better than they did in the 60s. Though since these appear to be the bells and whistles upgrade in progress Cybermen, the odds dont look good. Also, who wants to bet well get a few nods to 1968s The Invasion, or a line about wanting to meet an enemy that isnt immune to bullets?
