Doctor Who: 5 Best Uses Of Classic Monsters In NuWho
4. The Cybermen - World Enough And Time/The Doctor Falls
This two-part story near the end of The Twelfth Doctor's run is one of the best meetings of classic and new in the history of the show. The episodes provide an origin story for the original Mondasian Cybermen, and in a treat for those who enjoy the work of Big Finish productions, effectively brings the popular audio story Spare Parts into official Doctor Who canon.
The story also returns to the very first Cyberman design, and was a popular choice with fans, proving that the simple designs and uncanny valley feel of the human eyes and mouth still visible through the costume is just as creepy and effective as it was during Doctor Who's classic era.
Many Whovians believe this two-parter made the Cybermen truly scary for the first time in the show's revival, with the reveal of beloved companion Bill Pott's cyber-conversion at the end of World Enough and Time ranking as one of the most shocking moments in NuWho history.
