  • 1982: The series had screened regularly on channel 12 for three years but was suddenly dropped in December 1982.


  • 1983: Following protests from viewers, the series returned – with further Peter Davison stories - from 4 July 1983. Channel 12 cited the reasons for dropping the series was because it had insufficient funds to purchase the show. Fans raised and donated $32,000 to assist the station.
