ALPHABETICAL INDEX

Official titles are indexed to series and number, or date if out­of­series. Transcription Services (TS) and announced titles which differ from the official title are referred to that title. In the case of announced titles, only the announcement at the beginning of the show is considered, not that after the musical items (unless the show is episodic).

Third series shows are indexed by their official title only.

Some announced titles merely add 'Great' to the official title (e.g this index; if a title cannot be found, try removing 'Great' from it (or in some cases, adding it: 'The Tuscan Salami Scandal' is correctly 'The Great Tuscan Salami Scandal')

  • * indicates announced title differing from official one.
  • ** indicates TS title differing from official one.
  • + indicates announcement for part of a show (other than 3rd series).
  • v indicates 'Vintage Goons' series
  • » indicates link to the cross reference
