* A preliminary outline for the story, then entitled ''The Trap'', was submitted for [[season 2]]. It was rejected because the robots were deemed too similar to the [[Mechanoid]]s, then set to feature in ''[[The Chase (TV story)|The Chase]]''. Three years later, Holmes re-submitted the outline as ''The Space-Trap'' to a new, more receptive production team. The script — under the name ''The Space Trap'' (without hyphen, as here) — was actually commissioned for delivery in 1969, probably for the penultimate story of Season 6. However, because Holmes had completed the scripts early, the story went into production in late 1968 when a [[Dick Sharples]] story, ''[[Prison in Space]]'', fell by the wayside. | * A preliminary outline for the story, then entitled ''The Trap'', was submitted for [[Season 2 (Doctor Who 1963)|season 2]].
