Extreme Delays (Tunneling “The Web of Fear”)
Description
Mind the gap—and the homicidal fungus. The Web of Fear takes Doctor Who underground for a six-part siege featuring eerily convincing Tube tunnels, bulletproof Yeti and, halfway through, one highly suspicious Colonel Lethbridge-Stewart. But is this rediscovered classic genuinely terrifying, or an overextended web of tunnel shenanigans, magical foam and comedy accents? Join us as we investigate the mystery of the still-missing Brigadier debut, defend Patrick Troughton’s right to say “graunched,” and ask whether the Great Intelligence’s master plan can withstand even a little constructive thinking. Next stop: Yeti.
