What's left - almost in order! Since we embarked on this ambitious series of releases, batches of episodes (and other bits and pieces) that were previously thought missing have emerged from inside and outside the archives - including some that were too late to include on any of the earlier volumes.
Included in this very limited edition set are black and white telerecordings of episodes 1884 and 1886 from 1973 and, a major find, episode 126 from March 1965 which makes it by far the earliest known surviving edition.
Episode 126 from April 1965 Philip gets a surprise visitor, recently released from jail. A leather-clad Carlos is full of enthusiasm for his impending trip to Malvern, but he ends up hiding out in an exclusive girls’ school. Meg entertains Hugh with her imitation of a Brummie accent. Written by DAN DOUGLAS Directed by TIM JONES
Episode 1884 from March 1973 Sheila returns home to a warmer reception from Wilf than she expected. Timothy and Kevin discuss Meg’s eligibility for marriage and end up making a gentlemen’s bet to see who gets her first. It’s Jane’s first day at the motel and she mistakes David for a guest. Written by PETER LING, MICHALA CREES, IVOR JAY, BILL LYONS and PAULA MILNE Directed by MICHAEL HART
Episode 1886 from March 1973 Vera, the victim of sinister phone calls, is encouraged by Sid Gilbert to confide in him. Timothy and Kevin’s bet to catch Meg continues, though she has thwarted them both by disappearing to the Hotel Droitwich for the week. Vera’s watch is stolen.
