MARCHING down the steps of St Paul's, these Cybermen make for an imposing sight ... but not an unfamiliar one.

The Doctor Who villains were first seen at the cathedral in an episode of the much-loved science-fiction drama 46 years ago.

Recreating the image at the weekend, these Cybermen - shinier and sleeker than their predecessors - strode down the steps during filming of episodes for the new series.

New Doctor Peter Capaldi, 56, was also on set. Tourists at the London landmark were captivated by the action, but it was less fun for the actors sweltering inside the Cybermen costumes.

The Cybermen are among the Time Lord's most persistent enemies, arriving in first Doctor William Hartnell's last adventure in 1966. Their previous visit to St Paul's was in the 1968 story The Invasion. The first episode of the new series will be broadcast on BBC1 on August 23.
