(1) This was a last
minute replacement of a
first run screening of Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased): For the
Girl Who Has Everything which had been shifted equally
precipitately to Friday 6th March at 7.30pm. This is confirmed in
several local newspapers including stop press announcements in the
Huddersfield Daily Examiner of Friday 6th March 1970 and
the Huddersfield Weekly Examiner of Saturday 7th March 1970.
(2) Granada technicians were on strike from 26th May to 22nd
June 1970, a dispute which led to the suspension of Granada Television
transmissions and Granada programmes to be withheld from other ITV
broadcasters for its duration. Consequently, Granada's planned
Avengers repeat screenings during this period were not
transmitted.

The New Avengers —
Series 1 & 2
Granada Television transmitted The
New Avengers in such a fashion that episodes from both
runs of the series were intermingled to an extent during each of their
repeat runs in the region. We have decided to combine the
Series 1 and 2 listings and present the run as aired. Episodes are
marked • (1) or •• (2), dependent upon which series they were originally a
part of.

The New Avengers —
Series 1 & 2
It would appear that ITV
franchise operators were either offered or only chose to purchase a
package of 20 episodes of The New Avengers for this repeat
run. The following episodes appear not to have been included in the
package: House of Cards, Cat Amongst the Pigeons, Dirtier by the
Dozen, Dead Men Are Dangerous, Medium Rare and
Obsession.
