<p>Thanks, Thomas, I'm all for giving credit where credit is due and of course film and television pieces are the product of hundreds of people for any one piece!</p>
<p>I know (for example) that the Jeremy Brett series was a Granada production (or at least marketed by them), because I have been watching it on dvd and they make sure to point this out.</p>

<p>In fairness to those who are confusing independent productions with those of the BBC - it may be that the independent shows shown on our (American) Public Broadcasting Network were marketed to the US by BBC or it may be that we are simply confused about the source. Labeling can be a very confusing thing!</p>
<p>Even in the US it is difficult to know whom to credit (or to blame) for a film or series, because whoever "picks up" the series or film after it has been made almost always slaps their label on it. Thus an independent production becomes a Columbia or a Paramount production if they decide to do the marketing.</p> Sorry, it was an assumptiontag:teebeedee.ning.com,2013-05-08:1991841:Comment:15366272013-05-08T09:00:30.026ZTrishhttps://teebeedee.ning.com/profile/Patricia

<p>Perhaps in the US they were shown on the BBC America channel, but if so then they should have been appropriately credited. My apoligies if you think I`m being fussy but a lot of people worked on these great programmes and their work should be recognized. Back to the…</p>
