The Web of Fear is one of those Doctor Who stories you can`t say anything wrong about it. Not because it`s flawless (far from there) but all of it`s flaws somehow contribute to its charm. The Doctor against the yetis in the tunnels of the London Underground plus the first appearance of the Brigadier? What not to love about it? It is exactly 50 years since this classic Doctor Who story, featuring Yeti emerging from deadly mists and roaming in the London Underground, one of the iconic images of 1960s Doctor Who. This novelisation is adequate, but not one of the particularly outstanding ones, and is little different from the TV version, except for a bit of shuffling scenes round, with little or no deeper characterisation. It would have been nice to have seen some effects of the terrifying events on those living and working in central London. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Having said that, there are still some nice little touches and tweaks to this one, including an extended meeting between the Doctor and Col. Lethbridge-Stewart that never happened on screen, and the quiet rewriting of an anti-Semitic stereotype and muffling of a Welsh one. Pound for pound the TV serial is simply better, especially as there's no real way for Dicks to replicate Douglas Camfield's well-directed action sequences (and he doesn't really try) - but it's still a very likeable book, and as I said, one I'd be happy to hand to a budding Doctor Who fan.
