Hello fellow lost media enthusiasts,
I'm reaching out to the community regarding the animated series Ellen's Acres. As a Brit who grew up in the '00s and '10s, I'm not a fan of this show.
To be honest, I never really liked Ellen's Acres as a kid. Whenever it came on Cartoonito, I'd quickly change the channel. If there wasn't anything else on, I'd usually switch to a live-action sitcom on one of the main British channels (BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5) or Sky One. Looking back, I suppose I preferred more "grown-up" content even then.
However, now I'm intrigued by the show's apparent partial loss. Here's what I know:
52 episodes are known to exist in total
Only 26 episodes are currently viewable online
Evidence for the other 26 episodes includes:
Listings on Wikipedia
Title cards of certain episodes, namely "Saltwater Surprise" (depicting a viking Ellen saluting and standing on a pirate ship full of penguins), "Future Findings" (showing Ellen in space with a giant star in the shape of a polar bear), "Order's Up!" (featuring chef Ellen serving Chinese food to penguins), "The Pharaoh's Formula" (portraying an Egyptian Ellen holding a shiny purple and gold object while a pharaoh mummy gives her a thumbs up), "Tasty Trails" (showing Ellen as Robin Hood feeding a tomato to a monster flower), and "Great Games" (depicting Ellen in sportswear with a bear doing jump rope)
A single screenshot of an episode titled "Tasty Trails", showing Ellen dressed as Robin Hood, complete with a green tunic and feathered cap. She's standing in a forest clearing, blowing a whistle, with several red archery targets visible in the background.
Another screenshot from an unknown episode, presumably from "Future Findings", shows Ellen in a yellow space suit jumping over a puddle of paint on what appears to be the surface of the Moon. As she leaps, the paint splashes up, changing the color of her space suit. In the background, a blue alien with a red cap watches the scene unfold. The lunar landscape is depicted with craters and a starry sky, emphasizing the otherworldly setting of this particular episode.

<li>The show never received a comprehensive DVD release</li><li>There are a few limited DVD releases:</li>
<li>Australian releases of "Jumpin' Jupiter", "Dance Fever", and "Movie Night"
A Serbian DVD covering the first 8 episodes
</li></ul></ul>
I'm now on a mission to track down the missing 26 episodes. Despite my childhood aversion, I'm curious to see what it was like (I've actually seen some of these missing episodes).
Does anyone have information on where these missing episodes might be found? Any leads on international broadcasts, obscure DVD releases, or even private collections would be incredibly helpful.
Thanks in advance for any help. Cheers!
