Extra Details: issue: locked Overview box, so cannot update.
Full text should say:
Mark begins with one of the most popular genres of all. They are sometimes sneered at by critics, but from the 1930s to the present day, many of our most beloved movies have been romantic comedies.
From Bringing Up Baby and The Lady Eve by way of Annie Hall, When Harry Met Sally and Pretty Woman to Love, Actually (a particular Kermode favourite) - as well as recent hits such as The Big Sick and La La Land - Mark examines the cinematic tricks and techniques involved in creating a classic romcom.
Mark celebrates old favourites, reveals hidden treasures and springs plenty of surprises. Examining films from Hollywood to Bollywood via other gems of world cinema, he reminds us how, much like love itself, the art of the romantic comedy is international.

Hi! The current overview is better: shorter and more to-the-point. You can read the overview guidelines here.

Where can one add some longer text (eg. a Synopsis, or similar)?
EDIT: Is there a place for a per-episode Official Link? e.g. the BBC have these per Episode and per Series, as well as per Show.

We currently do not have a field for longer text/play-by-play recap of the episodes.

...per episode/series official links?

Nope, the TV link are only on a series level (and not yet localized). I think most official websites only have a series link, and sometimes a different page for each season. BBC seems to be the exception.

That's a pity. Pretty strange, given I notice you've got External IDs per Series (Season) and Episode.
