Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- The hybrid Cyberman had posed with Third Doctor actor Jon Pertwee for the Radio Times in 1970. Notable for being potentially the first appearance of a live-action Cyberman in colour, its image was featured on the Doctor Who website, under the evidently erroneous title 1967 Publicity Photo [+]Loading...["1967 Publicity Photo (illustration)"], and later appeared in The Doctors Revisited.
- The same Cyberman appears as mr tin in Reservoir Bots [+]Loading...["Reservoir Bots (illustration)"].
- Other images of this Cyberman have appeared, autographed by actor Barry Noble.[1][2]
