So, if you've missed it so far, the last two parts show on BBC4 at 9pm tomorrow (Thursday) and will cover Apollo 9 onwards.
My guess is that they will probably show all 6 parts again in the next few days, but probably at a very late time. If you record them I think you will enjoy them.

Definitely well worth watching, much unseen and behind-the-scenes material. (Unlike the BBC's own effort with an old James Burke and Maggie whatever-her-name-is from Sky-at-Night. The BBC having erased all its coverage from 1969, all that they did was to drag up old material from the
1950's onwards and make fun of the simple technical standards of presentation and animations, and the posh accents. Just IMHO. )
