Topic: 436 or 441? Double Whammy or Edwin King Of Northumbria?

Message 1 / 6

I am puzzled. According to the Episode Guide at http://just-a-minute.info/jam27.html, episode 436 S27E03 (15 Jan 1994) begins with "Edwin King Of Northumbria" and episode 441 S27E08 (19 Feb 1994) begins with "Double Whammy", but according to Dean's collection at http://www.mediafire.com/just-a-minute#myfiles it is the other way round! These two shows are easily confused because they have the same line-up and sound as if they were recorded at the same session.
So who is right, the Episode Guide or Dean?

hi golux and welcome to the group.

* the episode guide is mine.

* I'm not sure whose files those ones in mediafire are, but they're not mine.

* the thing is confusing because the BBC played the two Eddie Izzard eps in the wrong order, ie. Eddie's FIRST recording was the SECOND one broadcast and vice versa. When I first did the eppy list, 12 or so years ago, I had them round the other way because it says in the recording that the February one was Eddie's debut. But I later learned the BBc had mixed them up and shifted it back.

I hope that clears it up - it would all be so much easier if the Beeb had got it right way back in 1994...

cheers

Dean

Hi Dean

Thanks for your swift reply and for explaining how the confusion arose. I would prefer to go by the actual dates of first broadcast, so I am in agreement with your Episode Guide, - and very happy to be so since I find your Guide enormously helpful.

Another discrepancy which puzzles me is the divergence of series numbering from series 16 onwards. Am I correct in thinking that your Guide uses the BBC's numbering, whereas others (e.g. this group's list at http://www.freewebs.com/qitranscripts/justaminutelist.htm) use the numbering which counts each break in the broadcasts as a new series, in line with the in-show remarks by Nicholas Parsons?

I am raising these points because, having discovered that my old collection (at http://www.mediafire.com/?xpumdsi4w3i9d) has many mislabelled files and as many episodes missing as present, I am assembling a new collection of all available episodes which I will share at http://www.4shared.com/dir/anU8Uziu/Audio_to_share.html Putting this together has become an uphill task and I much encouraged by your excellent Guide, not only for the very useful information but also because I can see what great care you have taken. Many thanks for your help!

cheers

I agree it's best to follow the BBC numbering; particularly now they are running repeats from different series.
Thanks again
