Status

Like the preceding series, Studio 4 was subject to the BBC's wiping policy. Only two episodes survive in their transmitted form in the BBC archives.[4] One of these, Doctor Korczak and the Children, was adapted and directed by Rudolph Cartier, and was shown as part of a retrospective of Cartier's television career at the National Film Theatre in London in 1990.[5]
