* On its original broadcast, episode six of ''The Enemy of the World'' ended with a trailer promoting the next story, ''[[The Web of Fear]]''. The trailer featured specially shot footage of the Doctor in the London Underground talking to the audience about the impending return of the [[Robot Yeti|Yeti]] in the next story, before fleeing at the sound of distant shooting. Although episode six has now been returned to the BBC Archives, this unique trailer remains lost; although it survives on audio, so the trailer is included on the [[BBC Audio]] release of the story. | * On its original broadcast, episode six of ''The Enemy of the World'' ended with a trailer promoting the next story, ''[[The Web of Fear]]''.
