History[[edit] | [edit source]]
The event began with mist across central London, causing a rash of disappearances. On the fifth of the month (which may have been the start date), the mist had reached the Natural History Museum and the affected area was evacuated and cordoned off. The mist kept spreading, reaching South Kensington tube the next day; by the seventh, a web-like fungus infected the Underground, causing that to be closed off.
The British Army, from a command hub based in a Second World War transit camp at Goodge Street tube station, tried to hold back fungus and Yeti. Radios could not broadcast through the mist and while telephones were used at first, the Yeti soon destroyed the phone lines. The army tried laying their own lines between station bases. What the Yeti were was unclear to the average soldier, with Corporal Blake later believing this attack must be a foreign power (and Travers was "off his nut" about aliens) while even weeks in, Weams was unaware the Yeti were robots. At some point, the fungus ceased growing. (TV: The Web of Fear [+]Loading...["The Web of Fear (TV story)"])
The British Army operation in Central London was commanded by Colonel Spencer Pemberton, while Colonel Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart was flown in from Libya at the outset of conflict to handle the outer city. (PROSE: The Ambush! [+]Loading...["The Ambush! (short story)"])
River Song visited London during this time, trying to acquire a valuable painting on behalf of the art collector Mx Neon.

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
Contradicting the other sources in the lead, the narrative portion of The Secret Lives of Monsters places the London Menace on a February, and states the "events in Tibet" from 1935 happened "forty years earlier".
