Unfortunately, the series is believed to have been lost due to the BBC's purge of serials that they deemed had little commercial value in the 1970s. There are rumours, however, that the miniseries was released on Betamax. Additionally, with the findings of once-long-lost media such as the early episodes of ''Dr Who'', there may be some copies of the miniseries left somewhere.
