Whoever's kept them the various prints all this time, and is supplying them to TPTV deserves a Hurrah! So there it is!

Ah. Meant to give a reminder on this. Anyone see it? I thought it was very good, actually. Was struck by the interesting characterisation of the team members; none of the usual cliches you'd get in a show like this these days. Although this particular episode was as much a courtroom drama as it was a show about forensic science, and I thought the courtroom parts were the strongest bit. Whether the format of this one is therefore representative of the other (lost) episodes I don't know, but hopefully TPTV can dig up some more. They did say at the start that they had parts of two further episodes, although presumably not enough to be suitable for broadcast as-is.

It's being shown on Talking Pictures on Thursday 28th October at 5 p.m. (thank you, fatcat, at The Mausoleum Club for the news).
Hopefully, they've got the whole episode.

fatcat at the MC notes: "The Footage Detectives 26/9 introduce The Hidden Truth - Twelve Good Men 1964." (03/09/1964). TVBrain still lists this episode as missing. Has it been shown on TPTV?

Twelve Good Men (3/9/1964) is on at 5.05 p.m. on Wed. 10th November. At least, I think it's that episode. The listing just says "Witnesses clash in a murder trial; the verdict then depends on the evidence of Dr Henry Fox."
One For the Road (17/9/1964) is being shown at 5 p.m. on Monday 15th November. Megs Jenkins, Charles Lloyd Pack, Bryan Pringle...
