Trivia
====================================
The Web Planet was novel in terms of its advertising, since it was the first Doctor Who story to ever have a trailer.
Noted choreographer Roslyn De Winter was hired to create the distinctive movements and stilted speech of the Menoptera. She was so successful that the production team asked her to take on the role of the Menoptera Vrestin (which she accepted).
Believed lost in the BBC's early 1970s purge, negative film prints of all six episodes were recovered from BBC Enterprises in the late 1970s. These prints appear to have stemmed from a 1973 sale to Algeria and as a result the final episode was amended so that the "Next Episode" caption referred to The Space Museum instead of "The Lion", as the following story, The Crusade, was not sold to Muslim countries. There were also some edits to the first episode. Unedited prints of all six episodes were also discovered in Nigeria in 1985.
