-The three named Pertwees account for only 14 episodes, leaving 26 unidentified. Assuming the package commenced with [[Robot]] and ran in story order, the run would have included all of season 12, then at least one 4-parter from season 13, before coming to an end mid-way through another 4-parter!

-It is even possible that the 40 episode run included repeats of the 14 Pertwees, which therefore reduces the potential number of Tom Baker episodes.
+No doubt further episodes would have gone to air had the broadcaster continued to operate.
 Although this was the final airing of '''Doctor Who''' on CPN, viewers in [[Western Canada|Saskatchewan]] near the US border or those with cable TV subscriptions with [[Prairie Public Television]] would next see the Doctor on PBS affiliate KWSE in Williston, [[North Dakota]] (launched in 1983), which was regularly screening '''Doctor Who''' during the 1980s.
