- TriviaLater episodes were made in colour due to a request from the U.S. television network that was screening the show and wanted colour content to broadcast. This makes The Adventures of Sir Lancelot the first British made programme to be made and broadcast in colour (Zoo Quest preceded it as location filming was done in colour but the show was never broadcast in colour).
- GoofsOn the opening sequence for the black and white episodes, Lancelot begins his charge with a dark shield and his horse is also cloaked in dark colors. When the camera cuts to a longer shot, both the shield and horse cloak are light colors.

Featured review
Sir Lance-an-awful-lot!
William Russell is usually on quite good form in this series depicting the chivalric challenges facing the eponymous knight at the Camelot court of the legendary King Arthur (not always played by the same actor, which could have been a bit confusing were it not for his crown!). There are thirty of these enjoyable 30-minuters that allow us to sit back and enjoy some adventures for the round table knights as they face foes and woes from within and without. The production is adequate, as is the writing and although the stories have little jeopardy or menace, the actors are having good fun making this and there is plenty of horse-borne action to keep each episode agreeable to watch. There usually features a B-list "guest star" to keep an eye on, and there is always loads of plotting and scheming too. Worth watching in a binge if you can - they pass the time surprisingly easily.
