(2) This appears to be an
isolated screening of The Avengers, possibly to show an episode
missed in a previous repeat run. This is the only scheduled
Avengers transmission in the Yorkshire region during 1974.
(3) The Guardian suggests The Highest Fall of All,
a 1965 episode of the USA anthology series Bob Hope Presents The
Chrysler Theatre, in this 3.00-3.55pm slot, so The Avengers
might not have aired on this day at all.
