Story notes

  • When BBC Video released The Curse of Fenric in 1991 Nicholas Mallett and Mark Ayres compiled some notes on how to turn the story into a movie version - this eventually happened in 2003.
  • Sylvester McCoy's sons, Sam and Joe Kent-Smith, appeared as Haemovores in part four of the original broadcast story, but their scenes were cut from the finished programme. For the extended BBC Video release in 1991 and the Special Edition, their scenes were reinstated.
