There are newspaper archives and some of these can be accessed online by members of many UK libraries but they don't generally give episode titles for repeats unlike the TV Times. However those archives would still be useful to check which channels were showing UFO and on what dates and time slots and that is something I intend to check at some point. For example I spotted a repeat of UFO on 11th March 1977 just browsing through one of the archives. I think the deal at the time in the UK was that each channel was allowed to repeat the show twice. The repeats seemed to stop in 1977 before the show was returned in most (maybe all) UK regions from 1986 onwards. I always wished to see the show again but I remember thinking it would never be repeated after 1980 because of the date in the titles - thankfully I was wrong!

> Gordon's recollections for Anglia are very accurate. Most of the episodes were repeated in the early months of 1974 on Sunday mornings before switching to repeats late on Thursday nights in the summer of 1974 to complete the run. I couldn't find episode titles for two weeks but these were probably when Exposed and Ordeal were broadcast. I would presume Exposed was repeated second on 13th January with Ordeal probably on 7th April. Probably the only way of properly identifying these episodes would be to check an Anglia TV Times for those weeks or a local newspaper as national papers normally only list "UFO" when the episode was a repeat. Interestingly the late night repeats were almost all second block episodes which generally had more adult themes.

Although I did see the show on its first broadcast I was too young to have any proper memory of it. I do remember seeing repeats on Sunday afternoons in the Granada area around 1976 - for some reason my abiding memory is of the closing titles, not any details from the stories or even the opening titles and music. I know I really enjoyed the show but the closing titles made the really big impression and I still find them very powerful today.
