Wheeler Dealers

Where are the season and episode lists being taken from for Wheeler Dealers? I see some of the later seasons have been changed recently.

Is this series a candidate for being locked once a decision is made as to the authoritative source of season and episode numbering?

Looks like the reorganization of the seasons is based on Discovery UK numbering , Discovery UK being the original network for that show.
See : https://www.discoveryuk.com/series/wheeler-dealers/

The trick is that, after season 10, several seasons have been premiering on other networks (Velocity, Motortrend), each one using a different season's numbering…

The previous numbering on TVDB ended with 21 seasons:

• former Saison 11 on TVDB : 11 & 12 Velocity
  Saison 12 : 13 & 14 Velocity
  Saison 13 : 15 & 16 Velocity
  Saison 14 : 17 Velocity
  Saison 15 : 18 Velocity
  Saison 16 : 19 Velocity
  Saison 17 : 20 MotorTrend
  Saison 18 : 21 MotorTrend

Now, TVDB is showing Discovery UK seasons numbering, but with other channels air dates…

There is the saying for this in French: "Une chatte n'y retrouverait pas ses petits" (A cat would not find her young there)…

Shouldn’t the series numbering be based on the network where that series originally aired. So the number from the right column. This is is what it was a couple days ago.

Ultimately I don’t really care, but what I do care about is that once a decision is made it’s stuck to so we have some consistency.

Agreed this is not the first time episodes have been bounced around on this series.
Please make a final ruling on this and stick to it, every time this changes we have to rename all the files to keep it correct.

Like mike2468 said I don't really care how they are listed but the consistency is the most important thing.

Thanks
