Cotton or wool suit! Duh!

It would have to be nylon or some other synthetic fabric. I hope the air conditioning was good in the building, else Chang would have been sweating like a bitch.
On the other side of the token, if the Cyberseats were wooden and presumably treated so as not to go all weird in the water, they'd need to be strong enough to withstand a Cyberman's full weight, perhaps allowing for some buoyancy of the water, for a prolonged period. Having a few of them go arse over tit, with a pile of saturated matchwood under them, is only slightly less dignified for the formerly proud warrior race than having them sitting down in the first place.
I did like the nod to the Tomb of the Cybermen in the way the water tombs echoed their Telosian ones.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

What kind of an executive would wear a synthetic suit? And even so, what kind of executive would wear a non-cotton shirt?

Those are the wrong kinds of questions to be asking in the doctor who universe

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)
