In early [[February]], the [[First Doctor]], [[Steven Taylor]] and [[Vicki Pallister]] visited [[London]] during the last of the great [[frost fair]]s and witnessed the [[River Thames]] in its frozen state. On that occasion, they met the novelist [[Jane Austen]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Frostfire (audio story)|Frostfire]]'')
In early [[February]], [[London]] experienced a major drop in temperature that resulted in the [[River Thames]] being frozen over. According to one account, this was because [[Masoon|a Hyban]] was sucking the heat from its surroundings to survive. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Frozen (short story)|The Frozen]]'') According to another account, it was caused by [[The Cinder|a Phoenix egg]] absorbing heat as it hatched. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Frostfire (audio story)|Frostfire]]'') The people of London saw the freezing over of the Thames as a time for celebration and a [[frost fair]] was held. Between [[Blackfriars Bridge]] and [[London Bridge]], the river was "crowded with [[stall]]s selling [[food]] and [[drink]], [[clown]]s [[juggling]] burning [[baton]]s, [[animal]]s performing tricks, kids playing [[skittles]], and hundreds of cold but happy people chattering, laughing, and [[skating]] to and fro". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Frozen (short story)|The Frozen]]'')


[[River Song]] was taken to the same frost fair by the Doctor to celebrate her birthday. [[Stevie Wonder]] performed for them. Because of his [[blindness]], he did not realise that he had travelled through time. ([[TV]]: ''[[A Good Man Goes to War (TV story)|A Good Man Goes to War]]'')
