NOTES: This was the first colour story and the only story to be made entirely on film. The story introduced new opening titles (again by an uncredited Bernard Lodge) and end credits which now no longer scrolled. In the opening titles, the story title enlarges from the centre of the screen. No audience appreciation figures are available for Episodes Two and Three.

WORKING TITLE: The Silurians

NOTES: This story, an oddity due to it having "Doctor Who and..." in the title, is the first to feature Bessie, the Doctor's car. This story now exists in a UK transmittable version obtained by merging the previously surviving black and white film prints and NTSC colour recordings.

WORKING TITLES: The Invaders from Mars, Carriers of Death, The Ambassadors

NOTES: This story has a unique way of handling the titles; the story title, writer credit and episode number come up in a separate title sequence after the recap. Episodes Two to Seven are held only as film prints and NTSC recordings (a fault on the colour copy has prevented successful restoration as with Doctor Who and The Silurians).

WORKING TITLES: The Mo-Hole Project, Project Inferno

NOTES: The story title, writer credit and episode number blurr in over footage of volcanoes and flowing lava. The whole story only survives as film prints and NTSC recordings. For episode five only, Caroline John is credited as Section Leader Elizabeth Shaw. This is also the last story to feature the character of Liz, who disappears between seasons. This is also the last story to have no specially composed incidental music. Douglas Camfield fell ill during production, so Barry Letts took over as director for some of the story. There are no audience appreciation figures available for Episode Five.
