I'm sorry. I made a mistake and added the BBC Documentary "Queens Of Disco" as a series instead of an episode of "BBC Documentaries" here:

http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=256932&lid=7

Could someone please remove it? Not sure what I was thinking. I may have been blinded by the disco balls.

I see there is already an entry for "The Joy Of Disco" as episode 35 ( http://thetvdb.com/?tab=season&seriesid ... 1660&lid=7 ). I would like to add two other related documentaries that aired the same night, but I'm not sure what episode number to use. They are:

"Queens Of Disco" ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0074thh ) and

"Disco At The BBC" ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01cqt74 )

which both aired 2012-03-02, the same night as Episode 35 ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01cqt72 ).

They aired in this order: The Joy Of Disco (21:00), Disco At The BBC (22:00), Queens Of Disco (23:00).

On a separate but related issue, I'd also like to point out that one of the banners for this series mentions "BBC One" while the documentaries listed are not specific to BBC One. (In particular, this disco trilogy aired on BBC Four.)

Queens of Disco deleted. Just add them to BBC Documentaries. The episode numbers for this series are irrelevant as they are all standalone documentaries. It's just the year they first aired that counts.

Thank you. I will keep that in mind as I watch a lot of them.

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this.

I think I found a mistake in a listing on a BBC documentary.

Holidays In The Danger Zone. Season 6: Places that Don't Exist. http://thetvdb.com/?tab=episode&seriesi ... 5517&lid=7

The Database shows it as 2 episodes. I think it should be 5 episodes:
1) Somaliland
2) Trans-Dniester
3) Taiwan
4) South Ossetia
5) Ngorno Karabakh

Thanks...

Not quite the right place, this one is for one-off BBC documentaries, but close enough :)

Seems like the entire listing for this series is fubar. And unfortunately the BBC's website is totally useless after they "updated and modernized" it. Looks like you're right about "Places", but the rest needs further research. I'll try to take care of it, but if you're faster in finding sources for the rest, go ahead and post them here.

All that's in there is duplicates and what is not should go to BBC Documentaries.


Bit of a necro-post here, but I'm assuming you marked James May Documentaries as a duplicate manekineko? I was going to take a look at sorting it out (splitting/deleting duplicate stuff) as I've got a bit of spare time if no-one else was actively dealing with it/
Series: http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=117551
Also I think Top Toys (http://www.thetvdb.com/?tab=series&id=82785) should be moved to BBC Documentaries as the BBC list them as two separate things:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b008l2vq
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0078znc

No problem, and all done.

I've left the series, but renamed it to Sky Documentaries, as there was one orhpan episode that was a one-off for Sky (Sky3 I believe) and suspected we'd have some more to go in there over time.

A Panorama programme http://thetvdb.com/?tab=episode&seriesi ... 4224&lid=7 has been added to BBC Documentaries http://thetvdb.com/?tab=episode&seriesi ... 3858&lid=7. Can someone remove it as I can't just overwrite it as there's a picture? :-)

Please delete http://thetvdb.com/?tab=episode&seriesi ... 3908&lid=7 as I created it in error in the wrong season. The correct entry exists at http://thetvdb.com/?tab=episode&seriesi ... 3910&lid=7

thanks
