Fury From the Deep is the missing sixth serial of the fifth season of Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in six weekly parts from March to April 1968. Starring Patrick Troughton as the Doctor, the story concerns a colony of sentient, parasitic seaweed, last seen in the eighteenth century, returning to attack a number of gas instillations in the North Sea in an attempt to take over humanity.
No full episodes of this story exist within the BBC archives, and only snippets of footage and still images are around to represent the story. However, off-air recordings of the soundtrack do exist, thus making the animation of a complete serial possible once again.
The six new animated episodes are being made in full colour and high definition. The DVD/Blu-ray release will also include those surviving clips from the original 1968 production.

Great story from 60s Who
Ok, I’m old enough to remember the original. I have very vague images of this story, and it was significant as Victoria says her final goodbyes to the doctor and Jamie. But this newly animated version surpassed my expectations. The original Story was scary, but I actually think this animated version is scarier. The seaweed that takes over the humans is not just a little seaweed sticking out of their collars, but a creature taking over their bodies. The quality of animation is great. The soundtrack was well restored. The story moves well. Characterisations well portrayed. The movements are well executed. And it’s loaded with extras. There is a B&W or colour animated version. All 6 episodes have also been completed with telesnaps (where you can see the original special effects in static fineness). There’s a making of featurette and some film extracts. It’s a great Troughton story.
