- The story was dubbed into Arabic.
- It was not sold anywhere in its original PAL format. The tapes had been wiped by the end of 1973.
- The NTSC tapes were returned from Canada by April 1981, but some were in such a poor state that they clogged up on play-back.
- The tapes were repaired in time for a repeat screening in the UK in July 1982, but too late for them to be included as part of the 1983 reissue of just the complete colour Pertwee stories for syndication in the United States.
Reissue
- It was eventually released in early 1985, as part of a package of all 24 Jon Pertwee stories, and sold to the United States, as a NTSC to PAL conversion in Australia (in May 86, for the first time in colour), and later again to Canada.
- It also aired for the first time in:
| New Zealand | Nov 85 | N/PC |
| Ireland | Mar 00 | PAL |
