Maybe it's a little surprising that A Mug Named Frank was not the first into production, given that it provides the link between the Brighton and Windsor series. It may have been a logistical issue of finding the best time to film in both locations or get the right personnel. Another possibility is the episode was held back in the frustrated hope that the dispute would be ended in time for it to be shot in colour. Generally the production and broadcast orders are quite different. 

The first of the Windsor series, and a return to thirteen episodes. This should have been the first wholly in colour but a number were recorded in black and white due to a technical dispute. Broadcasts were fully networked from 9.00 to 10.00 pm on Wednesday evenings.

The 1973 repeats were in the afternoons, again across the whole ITV network. They ran from 3.25 to 4.20pm. All the colour episodes were re-run by UK Gold in the latter part of 1995.
