Hi I have just acquired 5 episodes of Kaleidoscope on 16mm. I was wondering if any episodes are missing, if so does anybody know which episodes.

Hi I have just acquired 5 episodes of Kaleidoscope on 16mm. There's a volunteer organisation for missing UK television... what was their name again... it keeps eluding me...

I would ignore the dates and episode numbers on TV Brain as they don't match other sources on this programme. Radio Times tells us that the series started prior to 1947 with Episode 1 being shown on Friday, November 22nd 1946 and further episodes being shown every two weeks.
Also, due to the harsh winter in 1947 and the coal shortage, BBC Television broadcasts were suspended between 11th February and the 28th February, so the episode TV Brain (and Genome) list for Friday, 14th February 1947 couldn't possibly have aired.
I've counted a total of 102 broadcast episodes of the TV series "Kaleidoscope". Most were probably broadcast live and never recorded, although as the link that John gave us only lists 1947, we can presume the last 82 episodes may possibly exist.
Don't suppose there's any chance of them being repeated any time soon, though...
