In the second series only supervising producers are mentioned in the credits, nowhere a simple producer in sight.  The rules say that supervisors shouldn't be included in the producers crew list. However I am wondering: Is a supervising producer not also a simple producer when the last one isn't mentioned or is a supervising producer a layback position which has nothing to do with a producer. Or is the executive producer here also producer??

Supervising Producers are allowed by the rules, Production Supervisors are not. It's two different jobs.

North is correct.  Per the rules, you can add Supervising Producer, but not Production Supervisor.

There seems to be some uncertainty in how to interpretate the rules as in some of the existing contributions no producers were included, so to be on the safe side I  needed some advice.

Thanks

Well, the addition of 'Supervising Anything' is fairly new.  That might be why no producers were included.
