* The Moonbase control room set is noticeably smaller, among other differences, in episode four compared to the other episodes. This is due to the aforementioned need to relocate production of the final episode to another studio. Although the set was rebuilt as close as possible to how it looked in the previous three episodes, there was no escaping the fact the new studio was physically smaller. | * The Moonbase control room set is noticeably smaller, among other differences, in episode four compared to the other episodes.
