#201 - The Kind of Stupid Choice an Alien Entity Would Make

Yeti menacing the London underground — one of the most iconic images of Doctor Who in the 1960s; and we discuss The Web of Fear in this podcast. Ben recalls how the Target cover by Chris Achilleos for The Abominable Snowmen with its yeti with a hint of fang helped confuse him when he first saw the mark 2 version. David fell in love with this story after hearing the narrated soundtrack and dreams about being a yeti cosplayer at Doctor Who conventions. We touch upon the missing episode 3 and how the fan animation made by Adam Bullock helped bridge the gap in 2013 and what to make of the new 3d motion-capture animation. Opening music is "Palpitations", composed by J. Scott and, closing music is "Music For Strings, Percussion, and Celesta, SZ 106 - 3. Adagio", composed by Béla Bartók and performed by RIAS Symphony Orchestra, directed by Ferenc Fricsay. We recorded this episode on 13 March 2022.
