I guess you could argue based on Nyssa mentioning the Cyberman damage on the console in Arc, but seriously is the Doctor procrastinating on repairing the TARDIS anything new, especially as they definitely don't act as if Tegan's departure is recent, and when they do see her again they don't act if she, from their perspective, just left. So I'd say the evidence against outweighs the evidence for in that case. Unsure about Castrovalva to Four to Doomsday either way.

Actually I just realised something. This trivia point definitely CAN be removed. Flight to Infinity is already a stretch since as I said they definitely don't act as if Tegan's departure is recent, as is Castrovalva to Doomsday since the Fifth Doctor's new personality only even stabilises in the very last scene of Castrovalva yet they seem pretty well used to it by Doomsday. But, I'm literally watching Warriors' Gate RN and there are two things actively suggesting at least one "missing" E-Space adventure. The first is Romana changing clothes. Sure, she could have done that while the TARDIS was in flight. There's no in-universe reason she couldn't have done that. But, back in the real world, one must remember how rarely characters changed outfits in this era. So having a character does so does seem like authorial intent was to suggest a missing adventure. Additionally, the Doctor is still focused on getting Adric back to Alzarius at the end of Decay, but in Gate, as I already mentioned but the implication neglected to dawn on me, he plans to take him with them back to N-Space all of a sudden. These two facts combined are evidence enough for an intended missing E-Space adventure that I shall now remove this trivia point from both here and the Leisure Hive article. Two of the so-called "gaps" have evidence putting them into severe doubt, and one more has evidence almost totally disproving it. I think that's enough to conclude that this is factually wrong, and cannot reasonably be concluded either in-universe or out. If I am missing some line or something that suggests otherwise an editor may put this back if they can back such a decision up, but for now... no. Bye bye.
