4.0 out of 5 stars Best-Set?, 14 Jul 2004
By A Customer
The release of this box-set curiously named 'Yeti Attack!' comprises of the two Troughton stories; The Web of Fear and The Adbominable Snowmen, both of which are currently missing from the BBC archives. Obviously, for those who own the individual titles (which curiously are still available separately,) there is nothnig new here, however, for those who are contemplating adding one of the prescribed adventures to their collection, I would urge them to look at buying this boxset.

Prepared especially for the 40th Anniversary of Doctor Who, it appears that the BBC have finally realised that this classic show does have some value, the collection comprises of the two individual stories (not as some people seem to think, a CD where both are presented in the same case) spanning about five hours and over five discs. Secondly, the collection is reasonably priced - it is cheaper to buy both in this set, than individually. Spot the BBC's real motive here...

The stories themselves are 'classics' - superbly narrated by Fraser Hines, the soundtracks capture the atmosphere of the stories and the supporting cast in each story, augment the strong storylines. Aside from clips and photographs, these are probably the closest that fans are going to get to two highly-acclaimed stories from Troughton's era.

As always, Troughton is excellent - he brings energy and excitment to the part, whilst his character, is finely sutied to audio and appeals to people of all ages. The fact that the box-set comprises both stories makes it an ideal present for anyone, regardless if they are a fan or casual listener. The audio itself is crystal clear, compliments must go to the BBC team who have cleaned up off-air recordings, whilst fans such as myself are indebted to people who made such recordings, thus allowing gems such as these to 'survive.'

Many people are dismissive of these releases - they see the banner 'The original BBC Soundtrack' and believe that is it. I would like to quash that myth - each story has its own specially written linking narration (which unlike early cassette releases does not obscure the soundtrack) and the COMPLETE soundtrack (not 'highlights.' In my opinion, all these type of CD's (not just Doctor Who!) are excellent, and comparing them to television now, one has to feel that something is missing...
