- The sale to Gibraltar was actually "back-catalogue", as they had already started screening Jon Pertwee stories by this time.
- The Hong Kong prints were sent to Singapore almost immediately after transmission, where they were assessed on 6 May 1970 (as indicated by hand-written text on the surviving film cans).
- Singapore subsequently sent the films to Nigeria, from where all but episode 3 were recovered and returned to the BBC in 2013.
- 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 March 1974.)
- The ABC in Australia returned its prints to the BBC on 4 June 1975.
- The BBC held a print of part one as early as late 1976. (This print may have been the one returned from Australia in 1975, or it may have come back from Gibraltar.) It was in the process of being junked when it was saved from that fate in 1978.
