The tables on these pages were compiled from my own personal records, and from episode 22 onwards, from data I noted down at the time each episode was recorded. I still have these log files, and it was from there that I compiled the information presented here. These details are published here for information purposes only, for the benefit of fans who enjoyed the programme back in the day, and to present as complete a record of its broadcast history as possible.
