Eligibility of BBC play which was made (recording exists on Youtube) but was never broadcast
Does IMDB allow inclusion a play which was made by BBC (a copy of it exists on Youtube) but was never broadcast because of its subject matter and portrayal of torture?

http://brianphelan.org.uk/stage-plays/ ARTICLE FIVE staged at the I.C.A. London and at Project Arts Centre during the Dublin Theatre Festival. It was also produced by BBC TV but has never been shown due to a political ban.
https://cain.ulster.ac.uk/othelem/media/docs/freespeech.htm entry "March ARTICLE 5 BBC" - "Aubrey Singer, then Controller of BBC2, for whose channel it was intended, having viewed the play in May/June 1975 said that ‘it would not be allowed to be shown.’"

Hi @martin_695862 -
For a titles to be eligible it has to be of general public interest and should be available to the public in the future or have been available in the past, which seems to be the case here.
Thanks!
