Missing film

I noticed a film missing from imdb; Northern Lights (1982), a British television film (bfi) where three leads were Judy Parfitt, Rik Mayall and Annette Crosbie and directed by Mike Vardy. All of whom have substantial credits on imdb but don't include mention of this item. (ref https://www2.bfi.org.uk/films-tv-people/4ce2b6a61a327).

I tried to  raise this with the automatic system but it only asks me for a film title - not even a date - and naturally many films called Northern Lights on imdb so don't imagine that will help.

Why would this be absent?

How do I get it added?

I tried doing a Collaboration search with the first 2 actors, and got 0 results.

Interesting that there's an American Playhouse episode of that title in 1982, but it's very American. 

Northern Lights

Looks like you've found a title that needs to be added to IMDb, assuming this BFI listing suffices as evidence that this existed.

Here's how to contribute it, from the Help center:
