The Abominable Snowmen

#DoctorWhoMarathon Ep 174 - The Abominable Snowmen 1/6 (Serial NN, Story 38) - 30 Sep 1967. #DoctorWho 1/2

Back to recons, as 5 of 6 eps are missing, and the animation isn't released until later this year. My memory from the past said I didn't enjoy this. See if that holds up. pic.twitter.com/daiEDCv509

The Tardis lands in the Himalayas in Tibet. Of course the Doctor goes exploring by himself & gets arrested. 2/3 of this ep is just exploring w/little interaction w/others. pic.twitter.com/rI4NlQ0eHv

The only ep of the 6 that still exists. Given so few of her eps exist, I had forgotten how much of a screamer Victoria really is. She and Jamie are chased by a Yeti. pic.twitter.com/6F1oVd89PF

Monks at a monastery think the Doctor is the cause of the Yeti attacks, and want to "test" him by tying him to a door. Jamie captures a Yeti & they discover it's a robot. pic.twitter.com/sLfeSlu5YZ

A nice surprise - there was a brief clip from the start during the Yeti attack I didn't know was there. This is the first ep in Who history with "The Great Intelligence". pic.twitter.com/nq5qAmatwB

the gear the Great Intelligence was using to control him was destroyed. Our crew then escapes. This story was a bit too long, it could have gotten by in just 4eps I think. pic.twitter.com/KlzzN9ZfxX
