As mentioned above, ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'' and ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'' originally had the Beatles songs "[[Paperback Writer]]" and "[[Do You Want to Know a Secret?]]", respectively, as background music. Rights issues caused complications for the BBC. The audio release of the former story edited out the song, while the video release of ''Remembrance'' replaced the original with a cover version. Since "[[Ticket to Ride]]" appears so prominently in ''[[The Chase (TV story)|The Chase]]'', the appearance of the song in that story accounts in part for the delay in releasing that story onto DVD. | As mentioned above, ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'' and ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]'' originally had the Beatles songs "[[Paperback Writer]]" and "[[Do You Want to Know a Secret?]]", respectively, as background music.

In March 2010, ''The Chase'' was finally released to DVD in Region 2 (Europe) with the "Ticket to Ride" sequence intact. It was later announced that despite the clip originating from a BBC programme, that permission could not be obtained for the sequence to be included in non-European releases of the story, which has resulted in the master being used for Region 1 (North America) and Region 4 (Australia and region) being edited to remove the sequence.[http://gallifreynewsbase.blogspot.com/2010/03/no-beatles-outside-europe.html] A less-obvious edit occurred with the DVD release of ''Remembrance of the Daleks'' which saw the Beatles recordings heard on its soundtrack replaced by versions by other artists. | In March 2010, ''The Chase'' was finally released to DVD in Region 2 (Europe) with the "Ticket to Ride" sequence intact.
