Discuss Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

Item: Episode 1 (39x1)

Language: en-US

Type of Problem: Incorrect_content

Extra Details: Not sure how to list this episode, TV Guide has it listed as 35x01 but ITV has added it to ITVX as 34x21. The press release for the episode names it Episode 1 but does not specify a Series. If TMDB existing data is correct, it also appears ITV have reorganised series 33-38 into two series.

Closest Archive to air date of most recent prior episode also lists up to 34x16. If this is the correct information to use, there is a clear error on TMDB in terms of series 33-38, and four episodes would be “missing” (34x17-20)

Any news on this mods. Just wanting to tidy it up if it does need changing. Seems to be messy on itv with the numbering. Not sure what rules to follow.

Well, checking the official archives is definitely the right call.

  • Season 32 began with six episodes in January 2019 and had five more episodes in March 2019
  • Season 33 has eleven episodes and began in August 2019
  • Season 34 began in December 2019 with three specials, had a fourth episode in April 2020.
  • Then, six regular episodes were released in May 2020. Those last episodes are listed as 33x07 to 12 on ITV's website. Also, I made sure to confirm they are not reruns via Fandom and twitter: Nina, Dan & Jenny. I believe these episodes should just be added to the ongoing season.
  • The next batch of five episodes was released in September 2020. These are listed as 33x13 to 17. I also just added these to the ongoing season.
  • The two Christmas specials that aired in December 2020 are listed as 34x03 and 04. It makes little sense. For now, I left them in the specials.
  • The three episodes aired in January 2021 are listed as 33x18 to 20. Again, added to the ongoing season.
  • Then, we finally see the beginning of a new season with the three episodes aired in February 2021. They call it "Season 34", but since they already had a previous season 34, it's going to be the beginning of Season 35. The seven episodes that aired in July/August 2021 are also part of this season.
  • The five special episodes that aired in November 2021 are nowhere to be found... I'm leaving them in the specials for now.
  • Same with the soccer aid special that aired on June 10, 2022.
  • The six regular episodes aired in September 2022 were listed as 34x11 to 34x16 on ITV. So on TMDb, they are going to be 35x11 to 35x16.
  • And the three celebrity specials that aired in October 2022 are in the specials.
  • The seven episodes that aired in early 2024 are still part of season 34 on ITV, so Season 35 on TMDB.
  • Same with the newest episodes: https://www.itv.com/watch/who-wants-to-be-a-millionaire/33753

I tried to follow the official listing as best as I could, but as you guys can see, ITV re-arranged their seasons around May 2020, so there's going to be some difference between TMDB's listing and the current ITV listing.

The rule is to never change past seasons because of a brand new listing. In those cases, we simply add the new season (whatever they are calling it) as the next season: https://www.themoviedb.org/bible/tv/59f743289251416e71000037

Hi @banana_girl, I've opened a new ticket but it's really an extension of this one. Please could you take a look. I think we need to add ITV's Series 35 as TMDB's Series 36, and move the Special to Series 36 as Episode 1 but would appreciate your confirmation.

Hi can you add a new season so we can add in the latest episodes please?

Can you show me proof that the latest episodes have been released as a new season?

They are listed here under Series 35. All these episodes have been added to TMDB as Specials 15-26 already

Here Under latest episodes next to season 35. https://www.itv.com/watch/who-wants-to-be-a-millionaire/33753/1a7907a0219

I previously asked you for proof because my VNP wasn't working earlier this month. It's fine now though, so I can use the ITV website again.

I created a new season. Feel free to create the episodes and re-add the images and guest stars. I'll remove the episodes from the specials once you're done.

Thanks Banana. I have added all the episodes now.
