Premise: The Nemesis Statue was built from the living metal, Validium. Cybermen, neo-Nazis and time travellers all want to control it. And Nemesis knows all the Doctor's secrets...
Notes: The 'silver' in the title has more than one meaning, not only does it link in which the appearance of the Cybermen but also the fact that the show is celebrating its twenty-fifth anniversary. Permission was refused to film at Windsor Castle so scene were instead shot at Arundel Castle. The Cybermen's costumes in this story were made from modified helmets and chest pieces last used in Attack of the Cybermen along with new bodies made from WWII parachute G-suits.
Verdict: Undeniably a mess, but the story does feature some great action scenes and has such a pace that it flies past. It might not be the twenty-fifth anniversary special you'd hope for but it's still great fun 7/10
