| Story Code: NN / Season 5 | UK Airdate: 30 Sep to 4 Nov 1967 | Doctor: Patrick Troughton |
| First airings by location | UK Repeats / Foreign Cable and Satellite | Previous Story / Next Story |
This story aired in the following countries. They are listed in chronological order according to known airdate. (Refer also to Selling Doctor Who for expanded airdates.)
| Australia | Aug 68 | b/w |
| Hong Kong | Oct 69 | b/w |
| Singapore | Mar 70 | b/w |
| New Zealand | Sep 70 | b/w |
| Gibraltar | Mar 73 | b/w |
| Zambia | Jul 73 | b/w |
| Nigeria | 74 and 75? | b/w |
- The Hong Kong prints were presumably sent to Singapore soon after transmission.
- Singapore presumably sent the films to Nigeria, since that was also the final destination of RTV's prints of The Enemy of the World and The Web of Fear.
- The sale to Gibraltar was actually "back-catalogue", as they had already started screening Jon Pertwee stories by this time.
- The New Zealand prints were likely disposed of by the end of 1974. (The NZBC's rights to screen the story had expired on 31 August 1973.)
- The ABC in Australia returned its prints to the BBC on 4 June 1975.
- The print of episode two that was subsequently recovered in 1982 may have been the print returned from Australia in 1975, or a print returned from Gibraltar or Zambia, and which had been salvaged by a film collector after being junked by the BBC.
- See also the Troughton Junkings page.
Reconstruction
- The story was animated in full (in colour/widescreen, and b/w 4:3 ratio) and released on DVD/Blu-ray in September 2022.
