Besides, I'm sure the sight of him in the opening credits attracted
plenty of viewers.

Thanks.

One more quickie -- just watched Computer Affair -- I didn't get the
comment by Bradley at the end when he says "1984..." while looking at
the bottle of wine/champagne. What is he talking about?

It's the year the wine was bottled - presumably a good year?

That's exactly what threw me! When he says "1984 ... in 20 years...", I
thought to myself perhaps the episode was written in 1964 and the writer
got his continuity all scrambled up. Then I remembered (and a previous
post from Marc confirmed) that the series was vintage 1970, so that
didn't make sense either.

It's a very odd piece of dialogue.

Well, the series was made in 1970, but was supposed to be taking place
in the 80s - took 10 years to set up SHADO.
