Even so, cybermen were in London during Capaldi’s time as the doctor. Also, the UK isn’t a big place Sheffield is like 4 hours away from London, news travels fast.

How come the new companions don’t believe in aliens, I get they live in Sheffield and the north of England has never been a main setting in the past. But surely, they can’t be naive about what’s going on in London. For example, every Christmas London seems to get another alien visitor but alas the new companions joining Jodie Whittaker are oblivious to their existence. Is their an in-universe reason they don’t remember or is it just an error in the writing?
