Projection Room Tabletop

The surface absorbs the blows without effect, prompting Ben to discard the tool and pivot to the projector's blinding light. Both Ben and the pursuing Cyberman stand near it during the tense improvisation, the plain surface anchoring the room's cluttered props amid shadows and humming equipment.
