[edit] Tomb of the Cybermen
- The Cyber Controller: We will survive.
- The Cyber Controller: You belong to us. You shall be like us.
- The Professor: How did you know we would release you? You could have remained frozen forever.
- The Cyber Controller: The humanoid mind. You are inquisitive.
- The Doctor: Ah, I see. A trap. A very special sort of trap too.
- The Professor: What do you mean special trap?
- The Doctor: They wanted superior intellects. Thats why they made the trap so complicated!
- The Cyber Controller: We knew that somebody like you would come to our planet someday.
- The Doctor: Yes. We've done exactly as you calculated, haven't we?
- The Cyber Controller: Now you belong to us.
[edit] The Wheel in Space
- The Doctor: I suppose you've come for me?
- Cyberman 1: You know our ways.
- The Doctor: Yes, I hoped you realised somebody did. I imagine you have orders to destroy me?
- Cyberman 1: Yes.
- The Doctor: Tell me one thing, why did you order Duggan to destroy radio communication with the Earth? After all, that is why you want posession of the wheel, isn't it?
- Cyberman 1: You know our ways.
- The Doctor: That doesn't answer my question.
- Cyberman 2: He was instructed to destroy only the transmitting complex.
- The Doctor: Oh, I see, how interesting, yes, of course. And presumably your large space-ship holds your invasion fleet, and the smaller ships can only enter the planet's atmosphere by homing on a radio beam.
- Cyberman 1: You know our ways. You must be destroyed.
- The Doctor: Yes, I was afraid you'd get back to that.
[edit] The Invasion
- Vaughn: Revive it, just enough to bring it out of its cocoon.
- Scientist: Yes, sir.
- [Two scientists attach magnet like objects onto the cocoon, go over to a control panel and activate a machine. About 5 seconds later the cocoon starts to move and a Cyberman comes bursting out.]
- Vaughn: Hold it right there. Now, Gregory, connect the Professor's machine.
- Gregory: But, sir, it...
- Vaughn: Connect it!
- [He goes over to the Cyberman and connects earplugs to it's headphones]
- Gregory: What emotion shall I enduce, sir?
- Vaughn: Fear, let's see how the cybermen will react to fear.
- [Gregory turns a knob and the Cyberman starts to move]
- Vaughn: More power!
- Gregory: That's all there is!
- [The Cyberman starts screaming and rips off the headphones]
- [Packer starts shooting and the Cyberman goes through a door]
- Packer: It could have killed us!
- Vaughn: At least we have proven that the professor's machine is useful, but get him to work on it because I want directional control and TWICE AS MUCH POWER!
- Packer: It's following the others into the sewer, we can't let it do that!
- Vaughn: Why not?
- Packer: It will kill anything that gets in it's way!
- Vaughn: Good! Anyone foolish enough to be down in those sewers deserves to die!
[edit] The Fourth Doctor [Tom Baker]
[edit] Revenge of the Cybermen
- Cyber Lieutenant: Computer reports heavy phobic energy discharge between the beacon and Voga.
- CyberLeader: That means the humans have recently used their transmat beam?
- Cyber Lieutenant: Yes.
- CyberLeader: Time to docking?
- Cyber Lieutenant: Sixteen minutes.
- CyberLeader: Order the boarding party to the board hatch.
- CyberLeader: The heart of Voga is almost pure gold, gold is hostile to our function.
- CyberLeader: Locate and destroy all animal organisims!
- Kelman: Have you killed them?
- CyberLeader: Of course not, we have neutralised them. They are necessary to our plan
- CyberLeader: Once our landing is detected, the Vogons will attack in force.
- Kelman: They only have light arnaments, nothing that can affect your Cybermen.
- [The CyberLeader points to a map]
- CyberLeader: This is the main shaft?
- Kelman: Yes, this is the shaft that I explored for you. It runs right to the core of Voga.
- CyberLeader: How far from the shaft entrance is the transmat receptor area?
- Kelman: Just a matter of yards, I set the receptors as close as possible.
- CyberLeader: Excellent Kelman, you have done well.
- CyberLeader: The Humans will carry the explosives into the shaft.
- The Doctor: What's your cut Kelman? Voga's gold?
- CyberLeader: There will be no gold! Voga is to be utterly destroyed, and this time we will not fail!
- The Doctor: Oh really?
- CyberLeader: And you, Doctor, and your two friends will help us in this task. That is why your lives have been spared.
- The Doctor: What great rewards have you rewarded Kelman?
- CyberLeader: The matter is of no interest to you.
- The Doctor: Everything is of interest to me, and Cybermen possess nothing that a human might want.;
- CyberLeader: You are incorrect.
- The Doctor: What is it? You've no home planet, no influence, nothing! You're just a pathetic bunch of tin soldiers skulking around the galaxy in an ancient spaceship!
- CyberLeader: You speak unwisely. We are destined to be rulers of all the Cosmos!
- The Doctor: Oh, I don't think so somehow. You tried that once and you were nearly wiped out.
- Cyberman: All resistance overcome.
- CyberLeader: The beacon is ours!
[edit] The Fifth Doctor [Peter Davison]
[edit] Earthshock

- [The CyberLeader turns round and looks at Tegan]
- CyberLeader: You have affection for this woman?
- The Doctor: She's a friend.
- CyberLeader: Do you consider emotion as a disadvantage?
- The Doctor: They have their uses.
- CyberLeader: Kill her.
- [The Cyberman walks over to Tegan pointing its gun at her]
- The Doctor: NO!!!
- [The CyberLeader gives the signal to move away]
- CyberLeader: Such a reaction is not a disadvantage?
- The Doctor: No.
- CyberLeader: There is still resistance.
- Cyberman: According to the Earthling, there were only ten crew members. They have all been accounted for.
- CyberLeader: Then he has lied, order the activation of re-enforcements

[edit] Attack of the Cybermen
- [The CyberLeader points to Peri]
- CyberLeader: Destroy her, DESTROY HER AT ONCE!
- Peri: No, no, NO!
- The Doctor: Wait! Let's discuss this shall we?
- Peri: [stuttering] I agree.
- CyberLeader: There is nothing to discuss.
- The Doctor: If you want my co-operation, she must live!
- CyberLeader: You cannot bargain, Doctor. It would be unfortunate if you were to be killed but we still would have your TARDIS.
- [The Doctor runs over to the TARDIS console and punches a sequence into one of the keypads]
- The Doctor: Not anymore, you don't. In precisely 20 seconds you and it will cease to exist.
- CyberLeader: Release the woman.
- The Doctor: How do I know that you won't cheat and change your mind?
- CyberLeader: You have my word.
- The Doctor: I'm not sure that's enough.
- CyberLeader: Also, that of the CyberController.
- The Doctor: But he was destroyed...
- CyberLeader: No, merely damaged.
- The Doctor: Where is he now?
- CyberLeader: On our home planet, Telos.
- The Doctor: I see.
- [The timer is still counting down]
- Peri: Doctor!
- [The Doctor de-activates the timer just as it reaches '1']
- CyberLeader: Correct, we can now time-travel. Set the co-ordinates for Telos!
- CyberLeader: How did you know where to find us?
- Lytton: You have a ship hidden on the dark side of the Moon, I tracked your transmissions.
- CyberLeader: Inform Moon-base our signals are being detected, they must increase the distortion.
- Lytton: You are quite safe, Earth authorities can't pick up your signals, it's beyond their technology.
- Cyberman: You were capable?
- Lytton: I am not from Earth.
- CyberLeader: So you have said.
- Cyberman: Where do you come from?
- Lytton: Veta 15 in the star-system 690.
- CyberLeader: What is the name of your satellite?
- Lytton: Rifton 5.
- Cyberman: Controller, our instruments register an irregular transmission from the TARDIS.
- CyberController: Inform the CyberLeader, on-board it will be The Doctor attempting to inform the Time Lords of his destination.
- Cyberman: The Time Lords will attempt to stop us.
- CyberController: Whatever in their wisdom, they will be too late! Telos will have been destroyed and we shall have The Doctor's TARDIS

[edit] Silver Nemesis
- [The Cybermen are being attacked by arrows tipped in gold]

- CyberLieutenant: We cannot succeed, Leader. We must be gone.
- CyberLeader: No. Let them take the statue and the arrows with them.
- CyberLieutenant: The Cyber-race will cease to exist.
- CyberLeader: Your logic is correct. Their supply of gold is limited. Retreat!
- [The CyberLeader draws his men back]

- The Doctor: Don't.
- The President: What happens if I refuse?
- The Doctor: I'm telling you, don't!
- The President: [With more authority] What happens if I refuse?
- Cyberman: Then you are incompatible.
- The President: What happens then?
- Cyberman: You will be deleted. [Kills the President]
- Cyberman: You are rogue elements.

- Cyberman: You are incompatible.
- Doctor: But this is a surrender!
