Despite never having watched the story (although I have seen stills from it) I loved the depiction on my Target novel and the story very much. It was the first ever Doctor Who book that I read when I was about 8 years old.
| I think the beauty of the Zygons was the fact they were only in it once. Their two appearances in Nu-Who have been good stories but taken away from the dank Scottish moors their impact has been diluted.
There's a BBC book from the 90's - The Body Snatchers - which puts the Zygons in Victorian London that is well worth picking up should you come across it.
The Yeti are excellent in The Web of Fear, definitely worth you purchasing the dvd, B_E. |
