First and foremost, MASSIVE thanks to Simon for uploading this lost gem - the first episode to feature an uninterrupted minute! (Yes, it's been established before that Nicholas has sometimes erred in saying something has never happened before, but he only had four episodes to remember, so I think we can assume he got this one right!)

Second, the Radio 4 Extra website lists next week's episode as 26 September 1972, the first episode to feature Clement, Derek, Peter, and Kenneth all together on the panel (first subject: Malapropisms). However, even though this episode has been available to collectors for a while, it's probably still worth listening and, if possible, ripping and uploading; the fact that Episode 5 was very nearly a full half hour long is probably as good an indication as any that even in JaM's earliest years, the TS editions had been pruned by a round or two. We'll likely hear something we haven't heard in over forty years whatever happens!

Again, huge thanks to Simon for uploading Episode 5. (Whether or not they have copies of Episodes 3, 4, and 6, this does mean the longest streak of consecutive missing episodes is down to two - 3 and 4, and 11 and 12. The rest - 6, 9, 23, 34, 36, and 182 - are isolated missing episodes surrounded by existing ones.)


-Matthew.
