Story Code: TT / Season 6 UK Airdate: 10 Aug to 7 Sep 1968 Doctor: Patrick Troughton
First airings by location UK Repeats / Foreign Cable and Satellite Previous Story / Next Story

This story aired in the following countries. They are listed in chronological order according to known airdate. (Refer also to Selling Doctor Who for expanded airdates.)

Australia Apr 70 b/w
Hong Kong Jul 70 b/w
Singapore Nov 70 b/w
Gibraltar Nov 73 b/w
Nigeria Nov or Dec 75? b/w
  • Hong Kong presumably sent its films to Singapore soon after transmission, as that was the fate of the RTV prints of The Enemy of the World and The Web of Fear.
  • The ABC in Australia returned its prints to the BBC on 4 June 1975. The BBC still had them in 1978...
  • An uncut 16mm print of episode 5 was found in the possession of a film collector in 1983. The then-owner had acquired it from another collector who had possessed it since 1973, which means if it was an overseas return, the only candidate is Singapore. However if the collector actually acquired it in 1974, then it could have come from Gibraltar -- but see note below (see also The Wheel in Space).
  • A second uncut print of part five was found in the possession of a film collector in 1995. This may have been returned from Gibraltar (if the one found in 1983 wasn't from there!) or from Nigeria.
  • A 16mm b/w print of episode 2 and 3 was found in Taiwan in 2013. It is believed to have been part of a package acquired for free by the AFRTS /American Armed Forces Network in the mid-1970s, however no airdates have been found.
