During this time, the TV Times would list several matches with the introduction "Featuring some or all of the following:". We have noted matches which were billed but not are not in our records as being broadcast. It is likely the shows were taped after the magazine's printing deadline and that the final match selection depended on time restraints.
The wrestling broadcasts came as part of the magazine show Let's Go until 20 October, at which point the show was repackaged as Saturday Sportstime.
Several shows in 1961 had Peter Cockburn as commentator rather than regular host Kent Walton. We have noted these dates. All other dates either had Walton, or no commentator was listed.
All broadcasts were on Saturday (other than on Boxing Day) and all broadcast times are pm.
