The 25 of August, 1975 edition of the '''''Disney Time''''' programme (a holiday schedule filler produced by the [[Disney|Walt Disney Company]], in which clips from both new releases and re-releases of various animated and live-action Disney films were linked by new footage from celebrities) was presented not by [[Tom Baker]], but by the [[Fourth Doctor]] as played by Tom Baker. The show started with the Doctor arriving at a Disney theatre via the TARDIS, presenting several Disney clips from the past and future, before leaving again.

The episode was filmed at London's [[Disney theatre|Odeon, St Martin's Lane theatre]], which was later known as the Lumiere Cinema and closed in 1997. On 20 July 1975, this location reopened as the "''Permanent Home of Disney Movies''", as it began showings of classic films such as 1955's ''[[Lady and the Tramp]]'' year-round.<ref>https://www.newspapers.com/image/795149875/?terms=%22Odeon%22%20%22Disney%22%20%22Lady%20and%20the%20Tramp%22&match=1</ref><ref>https://www.newspapers.com/image/925707686/?terms=%22Odeon%22%20%22St%20Martin%27s%20Lane%22&match=1</ref><ref>https://www.newspapers.com/image/721831947/?terms=%22Odeon%22%20%22St%20Martin%27s%20Lane%22&match=1</ref> The theatre's empty state implies this special was recorded after renovations were finished but ''before'' it re-opening to the public. This context suggests that, despite tying into [[TV]]: ''[[Terror of the Zygons (TV story)|Terror of the Zygons]]'', this story was likely filmed after [[TV]]: ''[[Planet of Evil (TV story)|Planet of Evil]]'' and before [[TV]]: ''[[The Android Invasion (TV story)|The Android Invasion]]''.<ref>http://www.shannonsullivan.com/drwho/diary/y1975.html#Jun</ref>
