The Cybermen detect the presence of the Doctor

The TARDIS drops the Doctor and his companions in the middle of an investigation into the murder of a team of scientists in a complex of caves. Deadly androids are patrolling the tunnels, but what are they protecting... and who are they working for?

Notes

  1. The only serial to have a silent end credits sequence. This occurs in the final episode where the usual end-credits starfield is replaced by a closeup of Adric's shattered badge.
