Which episodes are based on stories in the books?
The relationship between the episodes and the books is only clear for series 1. What is the situation for the other series? Watching recent episodes. I can find no contact with my memory of the books. Is this sourced somewhere? -- Bduke   (Discussion)  10:30, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

Clarification of Historical Period
I felt the current text of "in the 1950's" was far too woolly. I started watching episode one the other day but was intrigued to know the start year > 1952? 1956? 1948 even? This is a fair question to pose. Presuming the production team got their props right, we now know the answer. I think the small screenshot that I have added to be fair use & is covered by WP:NFCI item 5 "critical commentary and discussion"

Hopefully, the text is in a reasonable place. Not perfect but anywhere else would need a lot of rewriting, which I didn't want to do. Apologies to people who stumbled on my early attempts to get the image and its mark-up right. AlexBwineglass (talk) 17:09, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Update: The image reference was there but it's been removed and my text reverted ...

I thought I would use this as opportunity to try and get my head round the vagaries of non-free image posting. But life is just too short & it's only a TV series ... I'll leave it to someone else to sort it out. I am not sure that the props were that accurate: the diary in episode 1 shows 1950 but later on the engagement notice in the newspaper, despite the episode opening with shots of springtime daffodils and cherry blossom, I later found to show November 1953.
