- The serial was offered to Australia along with other serials, such as The Time Meddler, Galaxy 4 and The Myth Makers. Only parts one to six, and eight to twelve were offered.
- It was viewed by the censors on 13 September 1966 - and rated with both "G" and "A" classifications. No attempt was made to edit the films; the ABC did not purchase the rights to screen it, therefore it did not make any clearance payments to the BBC.
- Accordingly, the other countries that were buying the series at this time - Barbados, Zambia, New Zealand, Sierra Leone and Singapore - were not able to purchase the serial, as they relied on Australia to cover all the rights clearance costs.
- Chances are even if the serial had been accepted and broadcast in Australia, the other five countries might have been denied broadcast rights anyway, because the BBC had withdrawn the sale of all Dalek serials during late 1966 and all of 1967 as part of their agreement with Terry Nation.
- By the time the moratorium had been lifted, two of the six countries had moved on to screening Troughton stories, and would not have been interested in buying an 'older' serial.
- However, the other four could have been in a position to purchase the serial, as they did not air season three until 1968, which was well after the period of withdrawal had been lifted...
- It is not known what happened to the prints that had been sent to the ABC.
