 *''Doctor Who Monthly'' issue 71 (Dec. 1982) published an anecdote from a KPRC viewer:
-<blockquote>For several months our local TV station personnel began making fun of it-- adding their own sound effects and laughter.  Can you imagine the Skarasen ([[Terror of the Zygons]]) burping? I have it on videotape! Also, whenever shown on Sunday (i.e. Saturday?) afternoons, it was cut to 90 minutes (including commercials) so with [[The Masque of Mandragora]] we had the whole last ten minutes chopped out.</blockquote>
