This is a list of the missing episodes found in the recent haul (I say recent. It turns out that the episodes were found in May this year - the announcement has just been kept back for various reasons). There's no Doctor Who, and unless you're familiar with early British television drama, few names will be familiar. There are lots of one-off plays, and series from Rediffusion, an ITV company that's long since disappeared, but who's archive is particularly threadbare prior to this discover. There are some famous faces to be found in these episodes however. And I imagine that The Onedin Line was shown on public television for a few years.
Anyway here's the list: Plays Unattached to a Series 27.10.59 Antigone* (BBC) w/Dorothy Tutin, David McCallum 1961 The First Gentleman* (Rediffusion) w/Susannah York 20.04.62 The Winter’s Tale* (BBC) 18.12.69 Rembrandt* (BBC) dir (Rudolph Cartier) 05.02.67 Much Ado About Nothing* (BBC) Blood and Thunder (Granada) 04.01.65 The Changeling* Victoria Regina (Granada) 20.11.64 Summer* 27.11.64 Autumn* The Wednesday Play (BBC) 21.04.65 Auto Stop* w/David Hemmings 01.12.65 The Bond* Play of the Month (BBC) 27.09.66 Defection!
