Bit of an odd question but I was wondering if anyone knows any original airdates for the seasons in the UK. I don't need an exact day, channel and time (but it'd help!), but at least the month and year that each season began - ie. were they heaps behind the US or just a few months? If anyone knows that'd be great :)

Odd question? Not really, CalvertFan. But then to us Americans, you Aussies are walking upside down anyway, get it (opposite side of the globe)? Oh well, I guess I'm no comedy writer.
Here's some info for you. I hope it helps:
US dates: 3 Oct 1961-1 June 1966
*UK dates: 4 July 1963-16 Sep 1967 (157 episodes) BBC1 Thu 8.50pm then various days and times
Here's my source:
BBC Comedy Guide (http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/guide/articles/d/dickvandykeshowt_7772200.shtml)
This info is at the bottom of the page.

Thanks SO much for that Steve - I didn't realise the info would be so easy to find! I'm eternally grateful :)

You're eternally welcome, CalvertFan!
By the way, you'll notice there were only 157 episodes shown on BBC1. I know you're no more Brit than I am, but do you have any idea which one of the eps might not be shown and why? Could it be one of the eps starring British actors Bernard Fox or Richard Dawson in which they played particularly lecherous characters with an eye for Laura (just guessing)?

I noticed that too, but I'd have absolutely no idea which episode it was. I did try a little googling but got nowhere, fast.
OK, now that's gonna start bugging me :lol:
And I actually spent last new year's at the beach for a week Lolac! A nice hour's drive away :crazy:
