Ok, Pythonites and Olde Tyme Radio fannes, riddle me this.

Conventional wisdom says there were six episodes in the second (1974) season of the “Eric Idle Presents Radio 5” show.  They are described here.

Please note the sixth show titled “A Sad Moment”, aired May 4, 1974.

Now look here.  Scroll down (or search for) “ERIC IDLE PRESENTS RADIO 5 (Series 2, Show 6)”.  

You will find a show that has nothing to do with the sketches featured in the episode “A Sad Moment”.  In fact, it opens with a sketch about “Starship Free Enterprise”.  

This show is also advertised as being aired on May 4, 1974.

So.  Given the provenance of the “Starship Free Enterprise” episode, I am tempted to believe it is the 6th and final show of the 2nd series.  That leaves me wondering when “A Sad Moment” aired.

Ideas?

Yes, I have ENTIRELY TOO MUCH TIME ON MY HANDS during vacations.
