How to merge?
Hi,
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108170/reference/ und https://www.imdb.com/title/tt28636198/reference/ are definetly and 100 % the same movie. But it is impossible to merge them over the IMDb update formular.
What can I do then?

Marcus: I understand that The Snapper, while later released theatrically, was first broadcast as part of the "Screen Two" series. Hence, you should submit a Title Correction for https://www.imdb.com/title/tt28636198/ to change its title to:
"Screen Two" (1984) {The Snapper (#9.10)}
Note that the punctuation of the corrected episode title must be exact, including the parentheses and braces.
Please submit an explanation along the following lines: "This film originally was shown as an episode of "Screen Two" and only later was released theatrically. This is a duplicate entry and needs to be merged into the episode listing."
As you go through the process, acknowledge the warnings about "There is a mismatch between the title type of the old and new titles" and "The new title already exists in IMDb."
Good luck!
