The poster later responds positively to the suggestion that the new-series Cybermen might be foot soldiers of an old-series officer class of Cybermen and that they will be scary, they won’t say “delete” or “upgrade” and they may look different.
There has already been some speculation over the return of the Cybermen in this series with one poster suggesting that the Doctor Who Art Department have been working on Mummified Cybermen styled on the “classic” era costumes.
This led to speculation that they might feature in a story rumoured to be set in 1920’s Egypt dealing with Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter’s excavation of the Tomb of Tutankhamun.
Another possibility (and bare with me here) might be that Steve Thompson's episode is set in Egypt and reintroduces the Cybermen, but Moffat decided to use the reintroduced Cybermen in Episode Seven which necessitated Thompson's episode being aired before Episode Seven, hence it was moved to Episode Three… phew!
Of course all of this is based on a Jenga-like tower of spoilers and speculation being true. But if either of these episodes are set in Egypt we might expect to see a fair bit of location shooting in a quarry (doubling for the Valley of the Kings) later this month or early next month.
