  • This was one of only a few Hartnell serials that did not have its foreign debut in Australia.
  • The ABC in Australia returned its prints to the BBC on 4 June 1975.
  • A print of episode 1 was acquired by a film collector in the 1970s. It is unknown if it was in English or Spanish. If it is an English Suppressed Field telerecording, then it may have been the returned Australia print, or it had come from Zambia. If it is a Stored Field telerecording, then it may be from Sierra Leone or Ethiopia.
