Doesn't this have 4 episodes not 3? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:ED06:3E00:AD59:80F:7585:F36D (talk) 21:42, 19 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

I don't know about all network broadcasts but it was originally produced and aired as 3. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 08:38, 21 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
In Australia the ABC aired it in 3 episodes Bjenks (talk)
No, these episodes are correct for the videos here. Someone just needs to add the fourth. MikeR613 (talk) 23:11, 30 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

Citation number problem

edit

In cleaning up the table of episodes, I found that the citation number wasn't showing up in column 6, and this couldn't be remedied by placing it elsewhere in the table. I could get a result only by using Template:Sup, which of course needs to be re-edited whenever an earlier citation is inserted into the article. I hope someone with the necessary skills can rectify this anomaly.

Incidentally, I also feel that this table is unnecessarily cumbersome and repetitive (e.g., thrice reiterating the names of writer and novelist, which have been stated in the lede and/or infobox). Moreover, the 'Viewers' column (despite its purported citation) does not provide any information—and I was unable to find any via the ref link. Anyway, do weekly viewer ratings for a single network have any encyclopedic value? I would say not. I was also infuriated by the infobox listing of the entire cast under "Starring", including redlinked actors—but I'm not a movie buff and will leave such issues to others.

The citation number is there and is clickable but it's blue text on blue background so it's hard to see. I don't know whether you can change the color of the number but you can change the background color away from a nearly identical blue. PrimeHunter (talk) 10:24, 30 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
Well spotted, PrimeHunter. Bjenks, I think Help:Reference display customization may help with that, thought I haven't looked in detail. --ColinFine (talk) 21:32, 30 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
