According to tardis.wikia.org, Beyond the Sun was the working title for two Doctor Who stories:

  • series 1, serial 2: The Daleks[1] and
  • series 1, serial 5: The Hidden Planet, which was never produced.[2]

while serials A, B and C are the BBC's production codes for the first three stories of Doctor Who:

  • 100,000BC: An Unearthly Child[3],
  • The Daleks[4] and
  • Inside the Spaceship: The Edge of Destruction.[5]

We trust the Radiophonic Database, which says that tape TRW 6029 includes the last of these: "Serial C: The Edge of Destruction (a.k.a. Beyond the Sun)".
