Shani, I'm afraid I have some bad news about The Highlanders episodes. The BBC shortsightedly copied over several of the master tapes from the 60's episodes, including The Highlanders

Archive Status: All four episodes are missing. Telesnaps (off-air camera photographs) from this story exist in both the BBC archives as well as the hands of private collectors. Additionally, telesnap "enlargements" exist for this story (usually a selection of ten or so images from the story that were produced in a larger size for the person ordering them). Three short clips were recovered after being located in Australia in October 1996; this footage had previously been edited out of the broadcast by Australian censors.

Some footage, including the introductory clip from episode 1 and the Australian censor cut footage from the same episode, are included on the "Lost in Time" DVD set released in 2004 in the separate option entitled "The Highlanders: Surviving Footage".

Complete audio soundtrack released on CD as "The Highlanders" by the BBC Radio Collection in August 2000, narrated by Frazer Hines. Repackaged along with "The Myth Makers" and "The Massacre" as the "Adventures in History" boxed set released in August 2003 (with same content).
