Sword of Orion (Nicholas
Briggs) |
|
The cover
for "Sword of Orion", the second Eighth Doctor audio drama that will
be released at the end of February has now been finalised. Unexpectedly
the image used for the Cyberman is that
used during the Second Doctor's era rather than the more familiar later
versions. The reason for this as announced
by Big Finish Productions is: |
"As can be seen, the Cyberman image used is a slight variation
on the versions of the silver giants that were seen in the TV story,
"Invasion". Co-producer Gary Russell opted for the "Invasion" Cybermen
rather than the more familiar "Earthshock" versions as he felt that they conveyed a
greater sense of power and looked less like men in suits. The voices of the
"Sword of Orion" Cybermen however, will sound similar to the "Earthshock" Cybermen
but slightly more mechanical." |
|
"Sword of Orion" it is written and directed by Nicholas
Briggs and was recorded 16th -17th May 2000.
This story will see the Cybermen making their long awaited return
to the Doctor Who fold. Please click here for more details of this story. |
