OK, this is similar to lose a letter, ruin a story, only it’s a little bit harder. There’s some fun to be had though, and playing around with some of the individually titled Hartnell episodes pays some dividends.
e.g.
From Marco Polo:
The Stinging Sands
The Wall of Flies
Assassin at Pee King
From The Reign of Terror:
A Gland of Fear
From The Dalek Invasion of Earth:
The Bend of Tomorrow
This one comes with a 15 certificate: The Wanking Ally
Or from Troughton’s era:
The Faceless Cones
The Mice Warriors
You get the idea. What letter adding fun can you get up to?
This thread takes me back to Series 10, when The Lice of the Land featured the return of a foe from earlier in the season when Thin Lice aired (right after Simile). None of those were as good as The Heaters of Light, though. Good season, that Series 10.
