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 69 | b/w |
| Hong Kong | Feb 70 | b/w |
| Singapore | Aug 70 | b/w |
| New Zealand | Jul 71 | b/w |
| Gibraltar | Oct 73 | b/w |
| Nigeria | Mar 75? | b/w |
- The Hong Kong prints were presumably sent to Singapore soon after transmission.
- Singapore presumably sent the films to Nigeria, since that was also the final destination of RTV's prints of The Enemy of the World and The Web of Fear.
- The New Zealand prints were likely disposed of by the end of 1974. (The NZBC's rights to screen the story had expired on 31 May 1973 (sic). (The date recorded in TVNZ's film traffic register should perhaps be 1974, as that would be consistent with the expiry dates for The Enemy of the World and The Web of Fear.)
- This was the final Doctor Who serial to screen in New Zealand until 1975...
- The sale to Gibraltar was actually "back-catalogue", as they had already started screening Jon Pertwee stories by this time.
- A 16mm print of episode 3 was returned to the BBC in 1984. This was likely to have been from Gibraltar.
- See also the Troughton Junkings page.
