I have very mixed feelings about this one.

On the one hand, I thought that the scenes with The Doctor, Rose and Mickey were very good.  The "24 hours" scene was just fantastic, and the relationships between the three of them continue to impress.

On the other hand, the bits with Cybermen in them were pure panto.  The guy playing Lumic was particularly bad, giving a performance that would have been great had he been playing against John Pertwee or Tom Baker, but felt completely at odds with the style of the new Doctor Who.  And the cybermen themselves are coming across as more Dalek-like in their behaviour than Cyberman-like.

Not terrible, but definitely my least-favourite of the new season so far.

In the meantime, here's pure sacrilege on a plate - the KLF's "Doctorin' the Tardis" (itself a mash-up) mashed up with Green Day's "Holiday".

You gave away the fact that cybermen were in it. The obsessive among us avert our eyes at the title bit and get our partners to do all the skyplus controls so you don't read the 'info' accidentally.
