I like that those seasoned old troupers Troughton and Pertwee read the script, noted how much location shooting was involved, and both decided: “I think my character would be wearing a big warm coat.”

There's a new console and walls. The joints between the sections are more square- I think the one from Season 15-20 had bits of the wooden "Masque of Mandragora" console room painted grey along with a couple of new panels.

I think it's one of the early Delia versions that morphs to the Howell version during the transition to the middle eight. That's probably not the clearest way to describe it. It sounds different because its sped up to match the speed/key/pitch of the current version.
