Reenactment keyword not working?

This TV special has the "reenactment" keyword, but the five actor credits in the cast list are still being displayed under the "Self" sections of their respective filmographies:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt35273613/

Does it need to be a TV movie rather than TV special? Hopefully not, because that change would be inaccurate. I thought the reenactment keyword was supposed to work for TV specials, in any case?

@tom_wake For which name pages is it not working? Host Jimmy Carr https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0139743/ is correctly in the self category on his name page for this title. Taking the first non-self member of the cast list, https://www.imdb.com/name/nm16910040/ the credit is correctly in the acting category.

Hi @Col_Needham

Embarrassingly, of the five acting credits it looks like the two I checked are the only two that are affected!

These two are both incorrectly displaying in the Self category:

https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1334868/

https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1478358/

They are also the only two people who already had previous credits other than this title, so perhaps that is somehow related?

Thanks

@tom_wake Thanks, those two should indeed be in the acting category (unless Jo really is an alien from Alien ;-). How long ago was the reenactment keyword approved? It can take a few hours and upto 24 hours for the changes to ripple through all of the systems to move the credits around.

@Col_Needham To be honest, I can't remember if it was me that added it - but if it *was* me, it would have been no later than last Sunday.
