* "The Lion" was found in [[New Zealand]] by film collector [[Bruce Grenville]] some time well before [[1998]] and languished amidst Grenville's vast [[16mm telerecordings|16mm]] film collection for several years. In 1998, ''Doctor Who'' fan [[Neil Lambess]] asked if he had any ''Doctor Who'' film in his collection. When he answered that he had something called "The Lion", Lambess realised he might have a [[missing episode]]. He brought his friend [[Paul Scoones]] to Grenville's farm to videotape the screening, just in case Grenvile had the real episode. After it was determined that Grenville's print was genuine, he readily agreed to have it sent to the BBC for copying. Scoones shipped it to the [[BBC Film and Videotape Library]], and in [[1999]] the BBC made a Digi-Beta print of Episode 1, and returned the print to Grenville.

* The story of the recovery of "The Lion" generated a great deal of press interest in the [[United Kingdom]]. As a result, Bruce Grenville appeared on one of [[BBC1]]'s most-watched programmes, [[The National Lottery Amazing Luck Stories|one of the variations of ''The National Lottery Draws'']], to tell his tale.

[[File:Ian_Chesterton_Returns.jpg|thumb|[[Ian Chesterton]] in the opening of the VHS release.]]Since the story does not exist in its complete form, video releases generally feature [[William Russell]] appearing as Ian to offer narration before episodes of the story. In these segments, Ian has aged considerably, which may contradict the suggestion made by [[Sarah Jane Smith]] in [[TV]]: ''[[Death of the Doctor]]'' that Barbara and Ian had not aged since the 1960s. Sarah Jane however, noted that this was only something as "rumour had it". It is possible that the rumour was untrue, or a metaphor for their youthful personalities. Ian stated in [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Five Companions]]'' that he and Steven were more than a little bit older when he was brought into the alternative Death Zone.
