The Doctor, Rose and Mickey Smith discover a plot by Cybus co-founder John Lumic to convert the population of London into monotonous cybernetic creatures

 Its the part two of Rise of the Cybermen 

When watching this episode I noticed the similarities in my own film youth, the most notable is the ear pieces they used as they are very close to how we envisioned what our own ear pieces would look like. But unlike our film Doctor had a much bigger budget obviously as they are able to expand their idea like what we would love to do with our own film, its almost a bare stripped back version compared to this episode. 

We have the idea of using ear pieces that connect to the wearer's brain to revitalise them back to youths, so they can contribute to society once again, almost as slaves. While in "The Age of Steel" the EarPod devices are used to feed information directly into the wearer's brain and in the episode is used to control the population and lead them to John Lumic's warehouse Meanwhile, the head of Cybus Industries, John Lumic, tries and fails to gain approval from the President of Great Britain for his plan to upgrade humanity by placing their brains into metal exoskeletons.

Unknown to everyone else, Lumic has already been secretly conducting his experiments anyway, using homeless people and turning them into cyborgs. In our film the elderly are used as test subjects for the program, also unknown to everyone. Again similar to our film The Doctor and Rose discover what the EarPods really do whereas in our film it's Steve and Mick who discover the horrors of the revitalisation program.

The Doctor determines that they must destroy the EarPod transmitter located on the zeppelin, at the end of our film it is unknown if Steve destroys the ear piece or tries it out himself. Whereas in the end of this episode The Doctor tells everyone to surrender and tells the Cybermen that they are volunteering for the upgrade. The Cybermen tell them that they are incompatible and will be deleted.
