None as I recall. Gerry Davis and I had a long chat about the show once and he said it was a 'difficult' series to work on [becuase of the star] but one he was very proud of.
I've never even seen a photo from the series but something might exist in that department.

I don't have the Kal guide here but doesn't one episode exist or something? That's what I seem to recall being the case.

It's interesting then that the sidebar for the article on "television heaven" contains the following paragraph: Ultimately the series ran for 2 years winning much critical acclaim on the way. Unfortunately most of the shows were wiped from the archives many years ago. |

Excerpts removed by the New Zealand censors definitely exist from the episode "The Battle of Waterloo Street", from the second series. There is a very nice three minute scene included amongst them. In all, about 5 minutes of material. A few of the clips may be from a different episode.

38 are missing in their entirety or survive partially as a result of the censor (or other) clips - but 39 were made. The one episode which survives intact is "A Time Of Fear" from series 1. |

The First Lady was - as much as I can recall it watching as a 9/10 year old - very good but then I've always been interested in politics and presumably had some interest even then.

They include scenes from the episodes: The Battle of Waterloo Street 24/4/69, Mrs Whatever 26/5/68, Blow Hot, Blow Cold 17/4/69 Graham |

Do you know when these were discovered and returned, Graham? These were on the large reels of censor extracts discovered here (i.e in NZ) in a private collection in 2002. They were returned in January/February this year, along with some footage from a few other programmes, including some non-BBC. Graham |
