Although the original Moving Image database is no longer online, I did save the pertinent search results and could paste them here if necessary. [[User:Jon T\|Jon T]] ([[User talk:Jon T\|talk]]) 20:07, 19 November 2014 (EST)		:The website of [http://www.milibrary.com/ Moving Image], a stock footage library that owns the TV-am archive used to have an online database that listed archive broadcast data for TV-am. When the original database was online, searches of the original TV-am broadcast masters indicated that Transformers episodes were shown regularly until December 1987. From memory, and my few remaining 1987 archive copies of part of "A Plague of Insecticons" and "Heavy Metal War" these were still episodes exclusively from the first season of the series, although the database for the most part did not list which episodes were shown up to 1987. A few episodes shown in late November 1987 were apparently shown complete, rather than being split across the week, and their episode titles were indicated; they were all first season episodes. TV-am never acquired episodes from season two; these remained in the realm of contemporary video releases and satellite/cable broadcasts. Although the original Moving Image database is no longer online, I did save the pertinent search results and could paste them here if necessary.
