Although A Stripe for Frazer has not been seen since it first aired on 29 March 1969, the 30-minute black-and-white episode is being made available in animated form for new digital service BBC Store.
Three episodes from the second series have been missing for decades, as it was standard practice for the BBC to record over or discard tapes of programmes from this era. But an audio recording that came to light in 2008 means a “flash animation” of one story – in which Private Frazer is made a lance corporal – could be created.
