Archive status
All thirteen episodes were shot, edited and broadcast using 405-line black and white videotapes, which were all subsequently wiped for reuse. Telerecordings existed, but they were also junked at a later date, and the serial remains mostly lost. According to Kaleidoscope, a "large chunk" from the end of episode thirteen, sourced from a 16mm film recording, does exist, which includes the end credits with the BBC's spinning globe announcement, "this is BBC1" at the end. This is believed to have come from the serial's repeat broadcast. This clip is not available publicly.

The only publicly available visual reference to the production is a publicity still used for the front cover of a Radio Times magazine, showing Gary Raymond, Barry Jones and Ilona Rodgers in character as Martin Chuzzlewit the younger, Martin Chuzzlewit the elder and Mary Graham respectively.
