 Based on the information provided about the first episode 
 on [invalid URL removed] Who/12-5.htm, here's a review 
 of Doctor Who: Revenge of the Cybermen 
 (keeping in mind this only covers the first episode 
 and the website might not have detailed summaries 
 of the remaining parts): 
  
 Revenge of the Cybermen: A Bland Encounter with Familiar Foes 
  
 The Doctor, Sarah Jane, and Harry land on the planet Voga, 
 a world rich in gold.  They encounter a society on the brink 
 of collapse due to a civil war.  However, a more significant 
 threat emerges - the Cybermen. 
  
 Limited Scope:  The first episode establishes the setting 
 and introduces the Cybermen.  While the classic foes 
 are always a thrill, the plot seems derivative, 
 lacking the innovation of earlier Cyberman stories. 
 The social commentary about greed and exploitation 
 feels predictable. 
  
 Classic Doctor Who Charm:  For fans of the Tom Baker era, 
 the familiar Doctor-companion dynamic and classic Who 
 aesthetic will be comforting.  However, viewers accustomed 
 to the faster pacing and higher production values 
 of the new era might find this episode slow. 
  
 Uncertain Potential:  Without summaries of the remaining parts, 
 it's difficult to assess the overall quality of the serial. 
 The first episode lays the groundwork for a potentially 
 exciting conflict, but it doesn't offer enough originality 
 or intrigue to stand out amongst other Cybermen stories. 
  
 Rating: 2 out of 5 stars (based solely on the first episode) 
  
 Here are some additional points to consider when looking 
 for reviews of the remaining parts: 
  
     Search for reviews that cover all four parts of the serial. 
   
     Look for reviews that mention specific aspects you're 
  interested in, such as character development, plot twists, 
  or special effects. 
   
     Consider reviews from both classic Who fans 
  and those accustomed to the new Who style. 
  
 This will give you a more comprehensive picture of whether 
 "Revenge of the Cybermen" is worth watching for you.
