Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

The Adventures of a Jungle Boy — The series title is 'The Adventures of the Jungle Boy' (or 'Jungle Boy'), not 'The Adventures of a Jungle Boy'.

The Adventures of a Jungle Boy — The series was a BBC television series, not a British syndicated series.

The Adventures of Sir Lancelot — The entry states that episodes 16 through 20 and 22 through 30 were shot in colour, but the actual colour episodes are 16–20 and 22–29, with episode 30 being black-and-white.

The Adventures of the Scarlet Pimpernel — The series was broadcast between 1955 and 1956, but the claim that ITV had started transmitting in London 'just one week before the show's debut' is inaccurate; it was six days, not seven.

The Adventures of the Scarlet Pimpernel — Lucie Mannheim was not married to Marius Goring; she was married to Robert Adair.

Bradley Walsh & Son: Breaking Dad — The sixth series premiered on 1 April 2024, not 1 April 2025.

Bradley Walsh & Son: Breaking Dad — A seventh series was announced by ITV on 27 March 2025, not 27 March 2026.

Cannonball (TV series) — The series finale is titled 'Tunnel Eyes' but the correct title is 'Tunnel Vision'.

Crusoe (TV series) — The series aired on NBC from October 17, 2008, to January 31, 2009, but the actual original run was from October 17, 2008, to January 30, 2009 (the final episode aired on January 30, not January 31).

Crusoe (TV series) — The claim that the first episode won the 2009 Golden Reel Award for Long Form Sound Effects and Foley in Television is incorrect; the series did not win a Golden Reel Award for its first episode.

Dick Turpin (TV series) — The feature-length episode 'Dick Turpin's Greatest Adventure' was not made in association with RKO Pictures; it was a compilation of three episodes edited together, and the correct association was with London Weekend Television and ITV.

Dick Turpin (TV series) — The series was not filmed primarily in Maidenhead, Berkshire; the primary filming location was Pinewood Studios in Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire.

The Grand Tour — The claim that 'Celebrity Brain Crash' was a segment in the first series is incorrect; it actually debuted in the second series.

The Grand Tour — The video game 'The Grand Tour Game' was released episodically starting on 15 January 2019, not as a full game on that single date.
