The TV Series "The Trip" has four entries on IMDB.

The Trip (2010) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1698441
The Trip (2010) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1740047
The Trip to Italy (2014) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2967006
The Trip to Spain (2017) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt6193424

The second series is known as "The Trip to Italy" and the upcoming third series (UK release April 2017 Sky Atlantic) is called "The Trip to Spain".

I believe the first entry is correct and I have submitted alternate season titles for season 2 and 3 against it but have no idea how to go about merging the rest.

Thanks,
Mark

Thanks but http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1740047/ is a separate title; this is a theatrical cut of some of the material which premiered at TIFF and had a whole film festival / theatrical run, see http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1740047/releaseinfo outside of the TV-series version.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for raising this, this decision was intentional. "The Trip to Italy" was like "The Trip" and was first released as a film which premiered at Sundance. We do currently list "The Trip to Italy" as well as the second series of "The Trip" to reflect the later TV release. It is likely that "The Trip to Spain" with follow the same release structure therefore all of these titles will be retained and are listed in line with our policies. http://www.screendaily.com/festivals/cannes/steve-coogan-and-rob-brydons-the-trip-to-spain-lands-in-...
