"Lost" films get a lot of publicity but even more television is gone forever. It seems some episodes of one of my all-time favourites, "Callan", might be lost too.

Library of Congress found a couple of years ago many thought lost episodes of different British TV-series, from the black and white era. Some boxes had been placed wrong.

A lot of those shows survived because of copies made for NET (National Educational Television), which was the predecessor of PBS. NET's archive is now held by the Library of Congress and that is how they ended up there.
