With the advent of Creator/{{Peacock}}, almost all ''Postman Pat'' episodes are now available for streaming in the United States, with the first two seasons being suspiciously absent (making their absence even more conspicuous is the fact that the original stop-motion ''WesternAnimation/NoddysToylandAdventures'' episodes are on Peacock, along with ''WesternAnimation/MakeWayForNoddy'' and ''WesternAnimation/NoddyInToyland''; ''WesternAnimation/NoddyToylandDetective'' is still held by Creator/{{Netflix}}).

* SequelGap: The original first season was made in 1981. Though a lot of books and tie-in media were made in the years following, it wouldn't be until 1991, a decade later, that more episodes of the show would be made, consisting of four feature length cartoons and finally a second season in 1996. Another special would be made in 2003, which served as a lead in to a revival series the following year. Seasons three to five were ongoing, though ''Special Delivery'' seasons had breaks of three to four years between each.

He was dropped from the show completely in 2013, meaning Macleod now voices Alf, Bradley Clarkson now voices Ted and Selby and Dan Milne now voices Timms.
