Central Independent Television and Thames Television were the only contractors among the 14 members of the ITV Network to screen the programme for a short period. The programme was shown in a daily 3.20pm slot Tuesdays to Fridays and had the hour long episodes split into two to accommodate the half hour slot. This was a popular format for screening acquired Australian material as had been used with A Country Practice, E Street, Blue Heelers and Headland by UK broadcasters.
