-*The [[New Zealand]] government censors made a number of cuts to the episodes, including the removal of several minutes from episode three's attack on the troops in the warehouse. This missing footage was partially restored for the DVD by carefully dropping in alternative shots taken from the surviving material. John Cura's telesnaps taken off screen at the time of broadcast have preserved three frames from the still missing footage.

[[Singapore]] or [[Nigeria]] had made further censor cuts or timing edits to some of the episodes. Episode two had parts of the cliffhanger ending removed, while the same footage was mostly missing from the recap in part three. Had those two episodes been edited and spliced together for broadcast in Nigeria?

 *For the omnibus "movie" version that was sold to the USA, some of the cast names were misspelled in the end credits, such as "Do-Do: JACKIE LOVE".
-* Apparently the regeneration sequence from Hartnell to Troughton was grafted onto the end of part four on some of the omnibus editions of the serial.
+* Apparently some US stations edited the final scene of the omnibus, so that after the TARDIS dematerialises it cuts to the existing footage of Hartnell regenerating into Troughton. The same scene was apparently also grafted onto the start of [[The Dominators]], which was the "first" Troughton story in the US syndication package.
 * For the later DVD release, the films were restored by combining elements from the New Zealand / Singapore / Nigeria prints with a print of part two and censor clippings recovered from [[Australia]].
