The Web of Fear
I've not seen the story, but I've read through the transcipts and can't find reference to an Embankment tube station. In the real world (which I know isn't a valid source), Charing Cross - which is itself a station on the Circle line in The Web of Fear - became Embankment in 1979, making it unlikely that an Embankment tube station would appear in a story from 1968. Could somebody please confirm: is Embankment actually the name of a tube station in the story, or is it used as a term use to encompass the lower section of the Circle line - including all stations along the Thames Embankment? 66 Seconds ☎ 14:09, July 5, 2020 (UTC)
