Prisoner on ITV 1997-1999

The dates and times come from the TV listings in the Guardian, from the scans in the online archive ( more details at the end of the page). "nil" indicates that the date shown has been checked but Prisoner is not listed for that region on that date. I have indicated in brackets what was showing in Prisoner's usual spot.

Previous research derived from the listings in The Times and local newspapers are summarised on a now deleted page on wikipedia. The ranges of episodes shown in each region in 1997-1999 were:-

Yorkshire: 675 to 692 (1997) = 18 episodes, the same as in the table above
Meridian: 481 to 530 (1997), 531 to 563 (1998), 564 to 586 (1999) = 106 episodes. I can only find 104 episode listings.
Westcountry: 643 to 692 (1997) = 50 episodes. I can only find 49 episode listings.
Carlton: 53? to ??? (1997), ??? to 598 (1998) = 64 episodes, the same as in the table above
Ulster: 514 to 563 (1997) = 50 episodes. Details of the last 21 episodes given above were taken from the Radio Times website at the time of broadcast and the last one broadcast was 562. This region isn't covered by the Guardian TV listings in the archive, so thanks to Mark Moorhead for sending dates for the rest of the year taken from his diaries.
