Just wondering if the list on the main page will be updated after the recent recoveries? Also ,is it possible to have the episodes that exist also included? One of my favourite things to do is look at a series and see the episodes being ticked off

One of my favourite things to do is look at a series and see the episodes being ticked off But it is! Try refreshing the pages (F5 key)? I've seen the Avengers and Z-cars turn green shortly after their rediscovery. Last week Stuart updated some more, including World of Wooster. (Thank you Stuart!) For some series only the missing episodes are listed, I guess it makes sense for Doctor Who, otherwise there'd be a lot of them. This isn't done 100% consistently, some have a different layout, but that doesn't really matter, right? Till Death should perhaps still be updated, because it now has only 1 existing, because it used to be a missing episodes only list.

Actually I was already working on a revised list but there was some confusion about one of them: "intolerance", is that 27 June or 11 July 1966?

Strange ? for me its still saying Z-Cars and Softly Softly as not been updated.
With shows like Z-Cars which has the later series surviving, just group under 'rest of series surviving'
can someone post a link to the list with it showing as being updated?

I do think its important to see the surviving episodes next to the missing ones as it shows trends and it can be confusing if some series look completely missing.

Oh hey, z-cars isn't updated yet to show afray and family feud are back? I must be misremembering that then.
Essentially the blame is with Chris Perry and Kaleidoscope: If they would only stop recovering these episodes, then the site wouldn't need so much updating.

It'd be useful to list which episodes exist (and on what format). And while we're on the topic of the missing episodes list I've been intending to ask about Late Night Line-Up. It gives the impression that every episode exists apart from 6 episodes. I'm sure there are more missing than that?? Then at the bottom it says "Out of an original total of 15 episodes, 4 episodes are missing and a further 2 are incomplete." There were a lot more than 15 episodes.

In itself that is true, but aren't you confusing Missing Episodes with Lost Shows now?

Yes I assumed everyone was talking about lostshows.com, I'm not sure I've seen that other site before.

Otherwise,click where it says "Return to Main Page" underneath 'Missing Episodes Forum'on the Home page.
