[edit]

ONE of Doctor Who's greatest enemies, the Cybermen, have been killed off because TV bosses think they are out of date.

And in their bid to give the SF series a fresh look, they claim the Time Lord is more likely to go up against iPod-man.

Fans had been hoping that the silver-suited aliens who enjoyed many a battle with the Doctor would return now the show is back on our screens tomorrow.

But writer Russell T Davies claims that although he's happy to bring back foes like The Daleks, the Cybermen are to be banished into cyberspace.

He said: "I am afraid aliens like the Cybermen would be somewhat dated.

"I think you're more likely to see the Doctor fighting iPod-man."
