TARDIS console
"The TARDIS console prop is shown for the first time outside of the TARDIS itself". No, that was the Mind Robber. 165.225.80.59talk to me 11:26, August 11, 2016 (UTC)

Original Tapes
"However, up until 2011, the videotapes of all bar episode one were lost (having either been erased for reuse or junked)". They weren't lost or junked. They were erased for reuse. The whole point is that tapes were expensive and so were reused, not kept for posterity, lost, or thrown away. And from 2011 onwards, they are still erased. 165.225.80.59talk to me 11:30, August 11, 2016 (UTC)

Uncredited crew
Though some of the uncredited crew on this page could be found on the BBC website, these were not.


 * Assistant Floor Manager - John Turner
 * Vision Mixer - John Barclay

Also included was a link to doctorwhonews.net crediting Doug Mawson for film sound. From what I can tell, Our policies do not count Doctor Who News as a major or valid news site, only that their news articles are a decent starting point to find the source. -- Tybort (talk page) 14:49, June 12, 2018 (UTC)

Colourful explanation
"Although episode five was successfully restored to colour, countless restoration attempts on the remaining episodes failed until the Restoration Team re-colourised the story using the technique they used on episode three of Planet of the Daleks."

This is wrong. Planet of the Daleks 3 was re-colourised using a mixture of colour recovery and computer colourisation. There was no computor colourisation for this story, it was a mixture of colour recovery and usable sections of the off air tape.8.20.101.208talk to me 09:12, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
