Just like that, we’ve reached the end of Tom Baker’s first season with Revenge of the Cybermen. And oh boy, is this one a doozy. Could this possibly be the worst Cybermen story to date? Well, obviously, you’ll have to listen to this podcast episode to find out what we think in Shoulder Rub of Death!

Along the way, Anthony fights the urge to nitpick every single element of the story, Don expresses his intense dislike of this version of the Cybermen, Julie wonders where she can get herself the sonic vibrator that’s mentioned in the story, and Reilly is exasperated by what could only be described as “the world’s smallest shoot-out.” The entire team talks about Harry Sullivan being an imbecile (because of course we do!)
