This piece is from the episode "Age of Steel" starring David Tennant as the tenth Doctor.
In an alternate London, Cybus Industries boss John Lumic has plans to use his ingenious earpods to subvert and control the population, eventually turning them into Cybermen. However, Lumic's plan goes a little too well and he finds himself "upgraded" into the steel body of the Cyber Controller, both a leader and slave to the Cyberman army he has created. The Doctor confronts him and, having failed to appeal to Lumic's humanity, thwarts the Cyber Controller's plan with a control code which sends his metal army mad. As his accomplishments are consumed by flames, the enraged Cyber Controller tears himself free of his throne to pursue his enemy and exact revenge.
With the advent of the new series that follows the adventures of the ninth and tenth incarnations of the Doctor, a whole new group of fans has come to discover and love Doctor Who. Familiar faces are back, alongside all new allies and villains. The Daleks, Cybermen and others have returned, more dangerous than ever before, joined by new threats. But, rising to the challenge with ingenuity and gall, the Doctor continues to prove himself an unconventional, intellectual hero for all generations, just as he always has.
