SCOTLAND is part of the United Kingdom. As such, it receives BBC transmissions from London.

- 1982: Castrovalva 1 was shown in an earlier timeslot
- 1993: Planet of the Daleks 1-6 repeats were shown on BBC2 rather than BBC1
- 1998: During the BBC Choice repeats, BBC Scotland aired three additional episodes - Terror of the Zygons 1-3
