The Strange Case of the Missing Corpse (three-minute promo announcing that Season 5 would be in colour)

The cast and crew lists are as complete as possible, and readers should note that they are often more informative than the originally broadcast credits; that is, I have included complete character names, if known, in place of a single name - the addition in italics - (e.g. "Captain Gifford" instead of "Gifford"); and uncredited characters (with speaking parts or notable appearances) are listed also. Some of these have been identified by a combination of research and good luck - and sometimes error, such as the infamous multiple John Bennetts; if you see a mistake let us know.

Australia made Too Many Christmas Trees a Christmas special, screening on 25 December 1966, several months after the rest of the season went to air.
