This 6-part serial was never completed and did not air on TV.
The surviving footage with newly-filmed material was released on VHS video in 1992.
A "flash animation" adaptation with a newly-recorded soundtrack (by Big Finish Productions, using different actors in several of the roles) was released on the BBC Online website in 2003.
- The webcast is no longer available, but the old menus are still on the BBC's website:
Reconstruction
- The story was officially reconstructed using full animation (as an omnibus rather than episodically) and released as a digital download and on DVD in 2017.
- 19 July 2018: BBC America aired the omnibus restoration at 8pm. It was also given the title "Doctor Who: The Lost Episode" in some press coverage and online listings.
Novelisation
- The story was novelised by Gareth Roberts, published by BBC Books in March 2012. The book was later translated into several languages, and published in Italy, France, Hungary, Brazil, Turkey, China, Germany, Czech Republic, and Russia.
