Hi,

I just bought the collection of Dr. Who specials which aired between the fourth and fifth season (5051561000591). This collection features five different specials, each on a separate disc. Now, the question is: is this collection handled as a boxset, resulting in all credits being removed from the main profile (in the season sets, the specials are listed in the main profiles as well as the child profiles)?
Bye,
Elwood

It's a TV series so the full details should be in both the parent and the child profiles.

"In either case, the cast and crew are to be entered into the parent profile using appropriate episode dividers."

Hm, so basically the specials are to be treated like regular episodes despite the fact that they have a longer running time and were not shown as part of the regular seasons?

The specials where always treated that way. The Christmas sepecials of 2005, 2006 & 2007 were always on the first disc of the following season (2, 3 & 4) and were treated like regular episodes when it came to cast & crew.

Actually I've seen this handled differently, it depends on what profiles you download. I can definitely see the advantage of handling them as regular episodes though.
