An excellent serial Still in my memory every day. I've already submitted a review about this site where many of the characters have one extra episode credited than they were actually in because the final episode gave a complete cast list at the end of the serial. The characters and actors who appeared in the final episode can be found by referring to the Radio Times when they were transmitted. The first BBC 1 showing ended on Sunday 2nd March 1969 and the Radio Times of that date gave the cast of the final episode where there was a full cast list of the serial at the end of the final episode on the screen. .

Many of the characters have one episode added to the number they actually appeared in. This was because there was a full cast list at the end of Episode 26 the final episode. Kenneth More for example appeared in the first 15 episodes when Young Jolyon (Jo) died Because there was a full cast list at the end of the final episode his name was first to appear although he wasn't in the final episode. Many of the other characters were the in the same situation. It would be necessary to refer to the Radio Times on each occasion when the final episode was shown Sunday 2nd March 1969 on BBC 1 to get the cast list for Episode 26
