This episode I think really defines the second doctor especially in the first part, those opening scenes really show how fun, and happy and the love for travelling through the stars the second doctor is. Also it shows the fabulous acting skills of Pat Troughton as he shows how he can play a villain whilst also showing off how he can change his voice so brilliantly. The plot is really quite brilliant although there are some areas which I find a little boring (which is why it took me so long to review this story). With the DVD the cover is brilliant and the slipcase is the icing on the cake (although mine was slightly dented). My biggest problem with this release is the special features, mainly the fact there isn't any. There is only a next time trailer (Web of fear) and that is it. So I am hoping there will be a whole lot of special features on the Web of fear, or maybe this story will be in a box set or something. I also think that because of this, it's a little unnecessary that this story has a slipcase, I just think it doesn't really deserve a slipcase (just my opinion) anyway, the story is great, and the acting is one of Troughton's finest. It is a great story but a little disappointing there aren't any special features.

We can pretty safely say The Enemy Of The World and The Web Of Fear will never be released with special features.
