Separate episode pages with a comments section now done up to (400).

Found an interesting blog Talking TelevisionAU, one strand of which is to look at Australian TV 30 years ago through coverage in "TV Times", so it has now reached the first year of "Prisoner". Here's the link for the blog entries that are tagged Prisoner.

The separate episode pages now have a comments section where visitors can add extra notes or corrections or opinions or anything relevant to particular episodes. This has been completed up to (125) so far. It looks like this will take a couple of months to complete, so I will leave the conversion of the remaining image links to popups until this is finished.

Restored the episode guides. I'm aiming to restructure the site so that eventually each episode will have its own page, and have tried out a new format on episodes (1) to (14) with the screencap links as popups so the commentary and images can be seen at the same time.
Added note about Charles "Bud" Tingwell. Here are some links to obituaries: The Times; The Independent; Variety; ABC Melbourne and his official website.
01.03.2009
Added seven new cuttings send by Steve West to the cuttings section, all dating from the early months of the show. More to follow later.
Thanks to Simon Johnson for an observation on (148). Thanks also to several people who reminded me to add a note about Reg Evans' death.

Thanks to Steve West for sending more clippings relating to the first year of Prisoner. I've added one to the home page to commemorate the 30th anniversary. More to follow soon.

Added a banner ad to the home page for the Prisoner Recaptured event in April.

Quick recommendation for the PCBH Alternative Forum, set up by Steve Hurst to allow some freer discussion of Prisoner (and other off-topic matters).
10.01.2009 You can now read Steve Hurst's review of 1986 which brings to a conclusion his reviews of the whole series.
Added comments from Alan Alexander to (619); from Mark Caffrey to (667) and (668) ; from Dave Smith two further instances of Officer Barfield's first name, a comment on Myrtle Woods, and on episodes (86) and (240).
Thanks to David McHallam for spotting the absence of screencaps from (591). Unfortunately, it looks like I failed to record this from Channel 5, and have temporarily mislaid the Granada tape it ought to be on. Can anyone help with a few screencaps? (the two new characters and a few significant events, say)
Screen caps for (691), (692)
Anyone who has emailed me within the last few months and not got an acknowledgement please try again at , as I've lost some emails and attachments in a hard drive crash on New Year's Eve.
