Story notes
- Search Out Space was included as an extra on the DVD of Survival.
- The Doctor and his companions were invited to appear on a quiz show in PROSE: Storm in a Tikka, which bridges this story with the events of TV: Dimensions in Time.
- According to PROSE: First Frontier, the events of Dimensions in Time is a bad dream the Seventh Doctor is having. So it is likely that the events of Search Out Space is also a dream.[additional sources needed]
- Though the series had been cancelled in 1989, and this is not a valid DWU story, the fact this story premiered in 1990 means the Doctor Who mythos technically enjoyed 27 straight years where a new Doctor Who adventure in some form or another premiered on television, as opposed to merely 26.
