Changes needed for Middle English title...

@Bethanny​ Thank you Bethanny. I'm up to season 12 now, with some episodes having been repeated over half a dozen times. I've got an Excel spreadsheet to work it all out.

One of the three-part stories was later used as a condensed episode of Dramarama: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13103636/reference/

As it's repeated material repackaged, I've just left it as a "shell" episode. However, it's different in that it's trimmed down in duration. Should I add full credits for it? All movie connections are done.

Hi @MovieCat​ -

It sounds like you have a very organized and thorough process for all these corrections, we appreciate it!

Concerning your question about adding credits to the "shell" episode, these types of episodes should be devoid of any cast and crew credits.  Instead, shell episodes should typically include:

• Trivia item indicating the episode is a rebroadcast (e.g. "This episode is a rebroadcast of [xyz].")
• A "Features" Movie Connection
• Release date for the episode airdate
• Genre & Keywords

If there is no new content or significant changes, as I understand the episode was just edited down, the listing can remain as a shell.

I hope this helps!

@Michelle​ I found I had no choice, Michelle, it started to give me a headache. :)

I've now really gone down a rabbit hole as some early episodes were also shell episode repeats of two earlier series which didn't exist on the IMDb: Writers' Workshop and About Books.

@Bethanny​ The three removals of "alternate titles" - I submitted these via the form and they've yet to be updated.

(Actually, I see this was only a week ago... it feels like I've been doing this forever.)

Hi @MovieCat​ -

For these 'alternate title' deletions, can you post the related 18-digit submission reference numbers here for our staff to take a look?

@Michelle​ Hi Michelle, I had to do these via the contact form rather than a submission.

Hi @MovieCat​ -

My sincere apologies for the delayed response here.  Based on your last comment, you mentioned that you provided the relevant information to our support staff via the Contact Form, can you confirm if they were able to resolve this issue?

@Michelle​ Hi Michelle, sorry, it looks as if I'd forgotten as well.

A difficult title to work out and resolve, that one.

The earlier ones were listed by name in the TV Times and the later ones were listed by name in Channel 4 Archive Press Packs... but there's 2-3 years in the middle where they're only listed as "Middle English" in both.

As it's a show that relied heavily on repeats, I can't take the risk of adding later episodes in case they were already shown in this TV listings no man's land.
