Hello

I enjoyed your website and in particular, the section on Sir Prancelot.

In the section detailing the Little Book Series, I have a correction to the information presented. You state that the stories were by Jane Morely and illustrations by Stewart. Morely should be Morey (a typo on the website?) but only the last three (books 4 to 6) were illustrated by Stewart. Book 1's illustrations were credited to Roger Hall, with Book 2 and 3 credited to Stanley. I have all six of these charming little books and if you are interested, can easily supply scans of them all for inclusion on your website (having recently digitised and restored all the pages).

Also, thinking about the missing Episode 5, I believe it WAS actually filmed and transmitted. Since the Little Books are adapted and based on the televised episodes, there is reference in Book 1 to Sir Prancelot's ship not moving as there was no wind and Sim and Sue come up with the idea of everyone blowing backwards from the ship, thereby making their transport jet-propelled! I have memories of seeing something like this happen in the television episode - although it is a long, long time ago but I am pretty sure. Therefore, I rather think it was an error with the release of the episodes on VHS some years back that episode 5 was missing (unless it had disappeared from the archives or had been damaged and could not be included). Certainly the claim on the sleeve that is was the "Complete Series" was a mistake since the tape did not include episodes 21 to 32! However, there are definite differences in the books to the televised story - for example, in "The Haunted Watch Tower", there is no mention of the skeleton Sim and Sue paint on Sir Prancelot's back, and in "Watch The Dickie Bird", it is Lady Hysteria's attempt to fit a knitted vest over Prancelot's head which makes Duke Uglio laugh rather than Serf Harry's joke.

I hope that this is of use to you and let me know if you want copies of the Little Books (and what pixel size/dimensions you would prefer).

I am sending this via the message board as I received a bounce back from the email link ("the recipient is only accepting email from specific email addresses").
