Answer is none that I can remember, but Dr. Who hasn't been on TV here 
in the U.S.A. for years.  Although, you can buy many newer and older 
shows on dvd.
You must be exterminated! You must be exterminated. You must be 
exterminated!

 I'd associate those bots with cybermen as they sound sort of like that.
 Or dalecs, all they wanted to do was destroy, these things just want to
 exterminate so whats the difference.

 Hi Kim,
 Well as for the turret guns it was a military research base so naturally 
 it is apped to be well defended. I imagine them as some sort of defence 
 system that like everything else went out of control when the base 
 experiment failed.
 As for the temperal disturbance it doesn't have to be all that large. 
 They are rifts in space time. Imagine it sort of as a pitch black  sworl 
 that vaperises you when you come in contact with it.
 The insane scientists are likely human size since they were lab 
 specialists before they were mentally effected and driven insane.
 The boss is interesting. I kind of give him a demonic kind of 
 appearence. Kind of tall, strongly built, zombie-like looking, bright 
 glowing eyes, and able to vanish like a ghost.
 The blob is probably based on the m blob movies. Typically, it is an 
 alien organic ooz with inteligence that writhes and bubbles. In the 
 movies I have seen they are able to shrink up to very small balls, and 
 expand to fill entire rooms.
 The cyborgs are half human so they likely have the basic human size and 
 shape, but with allot of crome appendages, laser cannons, wires, and 
 hozes hooked to them.

 Hi Kim,
 Yeah, sometimes being blind is an advantage in games, and for that fact
 movies as well. During Halloween I can sit through a gory horror movie
 and not be effected when the rest of the family is going grose, that
 looks sick, that is spooky, whatever.
 However, on the other hand I did enjoy being able to see the games, and
 sometimes the enemies were really cool looking. For me it was easier to
 get in to the game seeing say an enemy jet fighter heading strait for
 you, you line him up and blow him away.

Hi Sean,
Yeah, there are several kinds of cyborgs. There are those like in the 
movies Cyborg 1 and 2 that are very human looking with organic skin, but 
mechanical in nature. There is the type of cyborg where the human brain 
is placed in to a robotic body. There is the Star Trek type Borg white 
skinned, half organic half machine, with  obsessive assimilation 
compulsion. Well, even Darth Vader was a cyborg. Especially, after the 
butt kicking he took in Revenge of the Sith, legs wacked off at the 
knees one arm wacked off at the elbo thanks to Count Dooku in Attack of 
the Clones, he has a computer in his chest, breathing regulator  to 
breath with. so as Obi-Wan commented in Return of the Jedi he is more 
machine now than man. Grin.
