'THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMEN' WEEK - DAY 7: SNOWDONIA MEMORIES!

A now iconic shot of Patrick Troughton and Yeti on location.

Wrapping up our week-long celebration of The Abominable Snowmen, here's a fun selection of behind the scenes images from the busy location filming in Snowdonia, Wales, of which this story was then notable for having more outside footage shot for its episodes than any other story at that point in the show's still youthful five-year history.
