A note on air dates: all the dates here are as scheduled in the TV Times, they're all in the afternoon. But the dates in series six marked with * are different in the archive catalogue at www.fremantlearchivesales.com, it lists them on the following day. So possibly those episodes weren't shown on Tuesday afternoon as scheduled but were first shown for the Wednesday lunchtime 'repeat'.
