- The serial was originally made and edited as a 4-parter, but was modified into and aired as an extended 2-parter in the UK.
- The serial was sold to Australia in its 2-part broadcast version, but the ABC cut the episodes in half for transmission -- new cliffhangers were thus created: the first falling on Lytton's line, "Release Davros", with the third falling on Davros's declaration that his Daleks would once again become "the Supreme beings!". These 25 minute episodes played without "Part Two / Three / Four" captions, and the 'new' parts two and four had very brief recaps. The same 'edited' versions later aired in New Zealand, and presumably also in the United Arab Emirates since it was also a PAL broadcaster.
- For US syndication, Lionheart was supplied with the dubbed final edit of the original 25 minute part 1 and an undubbed earlier edit of the 25 minute part 2, which had several extra scenes but no music or sound effects. Also supplied were copies of the two 45 minute edits, although Part 2 was an earlier cut minus its music and sound effects. Lionheart made its omnibus "movie" edition by joining together the two 45 minute edits (so the entire second half was the raw studio sound only), while the 4-part version was the undubbed part 2 with parts 3 and 4 created from cutting the undubbed 45 minute Part Two in half as had been done in Australia, but with a different cliffhanger ending: apparently the Doctor crying "You're destroying my mind!"
- Canada received the same alternative 4-part version from Lionheart.
