Just like the BBC Radio 4 recently called Fishermen Fisher People!

'Fisher people' is an offensive word.

They should be called FMSSF* Men

FMSSF* PERSON!!!!

They're the bad guys. Trans can't be bad guys.

Cybermen will be renamed as Cisbermen 😄

reply

Good point. Just drop the 'cyber' part and call them 'Men' .

Hmm let’s consider who the last two actors to play the Doctor’s arch enemy, the most evil character in the show, were:

1. A FEMALE ACTOR
2. AN INDIAN ACTOR

But yeah, it’s pushing an agenda that white males are the villains. Funny way to go about it, wouldn’t you say?

reply

It makes me laugh. These people have an agenda and yet claim the show does. Scarily I seriously belive that half of these people on here belive their own drivel

reply

No! Has to be WHITE men!

reply

I dont really agree with the "hundreds of genre catagories" idea , but I think cybermen warrant a new one!

reply

I always preferred the Cybermen over the Daleks. Fantastic concept, I wouldn’t be surprised if they inspired the Borg in Star Trek.

That said I think both Cybermen and Daleks could be rested for a few years. Concentrate on creating some new villains (there haven’t been many truly memorable monsters since the weeping angels) and allow the classic monsters some time to make their next appearance more impactful.

reply

Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exterminate that idea!

Couldn't resist.😁

reply

Stop Dalek-facing when you’re talking about cyber men!

reply

Yeah I think the whole body horror element to them is great. Problem is the show sometimes forgets this and make them just general robots

Cyber-non-binaries? Hyphenated for extra, liberal approval.
