  • This was one of only a few Hartnell serials that did not have its foreign debut in Australia.
  • When Terry Nation was trying to sell his Dalek spin-off series, the BBC agreed not to sell any Dalek stories from late-1966 to December 1967. The story was withdrawn from sale. A number of countries had already bought the story prior to it being withdrawn, and they were able to air it. But of the seventeen countries that had bought The Space Museum, five were not able to buy rights to The Chase.
  • The ABC in Australia returned its prints to the BBC on 4 June 1975, however...
  • A copy of part one was later found in the hands of an Australian film collector in the early 1980s.

  • The serial was reissued by the BBC in late 1985, and sold to:
United States from Sep 85 b/w
