《神秘博士》（Doctor Who）S07E12《Nightmare in Silver》

Clara打算带她照顾的两个孩子——Artie和Angie——外出一日游，于是劝博士找个好玩又刺激的地方。博士决定将他们送到银河系中最棒的主题公园：「Hedgewick’s World of Wonders」。这个主题公园存在于距今25万年之后，博士手里有「贵宾票」，因此他们四个人全都免票入园。他们可以吃到免费的冰激凌，他们可以玩任何一条线路。如果选择「Spacey Zoomer」，他们甚至可以玩上好几个星期。糟糕的是，他们赶到这里以后才发现公园因为年久失修早已关门大吉，一个衣衫褴褛的演出主持人（Webley先生）、一个擅长下棋的矮人和一支混乱的小型军队将这里当成了居所。这里竟然有一个博士最古老的敌人——Cybermen！人类与Cybermen的战争已经结束1000年了，这个Cybermen看起来只会下棋，事实真是这样吗？

本集由著名幻想作家尼尔·盖曼（Neil Gaiman）执笔创作。他在解释这集故事的时候说：

Jason Watkins plays Mr Webley, this wonderful, slightly alcoholic old showman touring the universe with a waxworks and a chess-playing Cyberman. Warwick Davis is his henchman, who is called Porridge. He’s affable, sweet and helps Webley and cannot wait to get off this planet. Tamzin Outhwaite is a captain named Alice Ferren who’s in charge of the platoon doing troop exercises on an abandoned amusement park planet and as we discover, as the story goes on, it’s actually a punishment platoon. They’re all people who’ve got into trouble. She was sent there for disobeying orders. They’re not the kind of crack troop you’d want if it so happened that a Cyberman moves in – a new model Cyberman that we haven’t seen, who is absolutely lethal and hyper-intelligent.
