In early [[February]], the presence of a [[Hyban]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Frozen (short story)|The Frozen]]'') and [[The Cinder|a Phoenix egg]] in [[London]] resulted in a major drop in temperature that froze the surface of the [[River Thames]]. ([[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".

[[ | The frost fair was not all fun and games, as there was a [[Creature (Thin Ice)|fish-like creature]] beneath the ice that ate revellers and converted them into [[feces]] which [[Sutcliffe|Lord Sutcliffe]] collected downstream and used as a powerful fuel.

The [[Tenth Doctor]] and [[Mai Kondo]] visited the frost fair and encountered [[Masoon]].

[[River Song]] was taken to the 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]]'') | |||
On [[8 February]], the [[Twelfth Doctor]] and [[Bill Potts]] came to the frost fair directly after leaving [[Gliese 581 D]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Smile (TV story)|Smile]]'', ''[[Thin Ice (TV story)|Thin Ice]]'') They discovered that Sutcliffe was profiting off of the deaths caused by the alien fish beneath the ice and that he was planning on using explosives to crack open the ice and feed everybody attending the fair to the fish. The Doctor moved the explosives so that they broke the chains keeping the fish in the Thames and the fish escaped, destroying the ice covering the Thames as it left. Sutcliffe was killed during the breaking of the Thames and the Doctor and Bill arranged for his house to be given to a few orphans. ([[TV]]: ''[[Thin Ice (TV story)|Thin Ice]]'') | |||
