In the [[Verity Lambert]] era, most episodes were completely taped in a few hours, largely because they were photographed sequentially as theatrical plays with minimal editing.  As the editing of videotape became more affordable, ''Doctor Who'' was filmed out of sequence, and thus more time could be spent filming each scene.  Location filming also became increasingly common.  From the advent of significant location filming in the waning half of [[William Hartnell]]'s involvement with the program,  principal photography was split between "studio days' and "location days".  This meant that the total time needed to complete most episodes naturally increased for that reason alone.
