‘Doctor Who’ 60th Anniversary Marathon – ‘The Web of Fear’

Hello everyone! 🙂

Welcome to ‘Bradley’s Basement’ blog and I’m Tim Bradley!

Let’s check out ‘The Web of Fear’, a six-part ‘Doctor Who’ story that features the second appearance of the Yeti in the TV series. Like ‘The Enemy of the World’, this was another ‘Doctor Who’ classic adventure that was considered lost from the BBC Archives before it was found and recovered in October 2013.

It also features the return of Jack Watling as Professor Travers and it introduces Nicholas Courtney as Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart. Continue reading
