Capaldi wants to do Cybermen origin story in ‘Doctor Who’

Posted Filed under

Doctor Who star Peter Capaldi has revealed that he wants to do a ‘Genesis of the Cybermen’ story.

The cyborgs made their debut in William Hartnell’s exit story ‘The Tenth Planet’ in 1966 and most recently featured in Season 8’s finale.

Speculating about future stories, Capaldi told Doctor Who: The Fan Show on YouTube: “We should either have some of [the Cybermen] becoming Time Lords and somehow channelling it so that they have access to time and space.”

He added: “Or I think it would be good if we had ‘Genesis of the Cybermen’. If we found the Doctor on Mondas itself in an adventure where he discovered the Cybermen actually being created.”

The actor also said that he’d like to bring back other classic monsters, including the Axons from ‘The Claws of Axos’, Daemons from ‘The Daemons’, and the Zarbi from and Menoptera from ‘The Web Planet’.
