The original credit sequences for these episodes exist in a private collection,
having been retained on 16mm film as part of a BBC Graphic Department showreel,
along with the title sequence for Harold Pinter's play Tea Party (The
Largest Theatre in the World - 25/03/65), which survives in its entirety on
b/w625VT conversion from b/w405VT. |

Rumours persisted for many years that this episode existed in private hands
before it was actually recovered. However, it was in fact found in the archive of a
European broadcaster, and returned to the BBC in 2006. |

Returned to the BBC by a private collector in 2004. |

Clips from these episodes exist on various BBC programmes:
* Satisfaction Guaranteed - one clip sourced from b/wTR16 in Towards
Tomorrow: Robot (28/12/67), which includes interview segments with
Isaac Asimov
* Liar! - two clips in Towards Tomorrow: 2001 - An Earth Prophecy
(25/03/69); although sourced from a b/wTR16 (now lost), sufficient chrominance signal
was encoded within it to enable recovery of the original colour
* Random Quest - one clip in Nationwide of 22/10/70; also sourced from
a b/wTR16 (now lost) with sufficient chrominance signal to enable recovery of the
original colour
For further details, see Colin Cutler's extensive and excellent Out of the Unknown
Clips Guide on the Zeta
Minor website. |

Clips from these episodes exist on b/w16TR in the Australian National Archives,
having been previously retained by the Australian Censorship Board (physically
removed from transmission prints before broadcast); they have not yet been copied
and/or otherwise returned to the BBC:
* Immortality Inc. - 5 seconds duration
* The Last Witness - 33 seconds duration
See Colin Cutler's Clips Guide for further details. |

An approximately 28½ minute excerpt from this episode - comprising
the central section of the play minus opening and closing scenes - exists
on low-band b/w625VT, having been discovered in January 1999 during the ongoing
transfer of the BBC's stock of 2" Quad VT to digital format. Although technically a
monochrome recording, sufficient chrominance signal was encoded within it to
enable recovery of the original colour. Despite previous speculation, this episode
is not the source of the prop featured in a clip unearthed during research
for the 1993 Doctor Who documentary Thirty Years in the TARDIS. |

Although listed as existing in BBC records, these episodes were sent
abroad in the 1970s and not returned. |
