Persuasion info missing

I looked at the page for the 1995 version of Persuasion on Monday and there was a poster of the film as the main picture. Now I look at the page again and it's missing. The cast order is also wrong. There was more info such as that it's a Jane Austen adaptation and now it's gone? The director Roger Michell's credit has also been removed?

I see all the info here but not on the desktop site:
https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0114117/?ref_=tt_mv_desc

Hello sandra_visser,

I have look for "Persuasion" and it shows the poster for the title is live and same as the Director's credit. I encourage you to submit corrections if there is any info that is wrong such as the credit ordering or missing information on the title.

You can find information about credit ordering on our Credits help page. Let us know if anything else, we are glad to help!

@Fran Hi there, it's strange, if I click on the link you gave above, it goes to a page where it says the film is part of a series called Screen Two and the complete info is there. But when I type in Persuasion in the search bar, I find this:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt19035092/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_3

This one is incomplete, but it's the same as the movie in the link you supplied. Not sure if someone felt the need to create the new page above because the film wasn't released as part of a series called Screen Two all over the world. I'm guessing the Screen Two thing is in America? Maybe the two should just be merged to avoid confusion?
Thanks

Sandra

Sandra: You're correct that these two entries should be merged, but for the opposite reason. This version of "Persuasion" was first shown anywhere as part of BBC2's "Screen Two" series of TV movies in the UK. Hence, that is how it's listed by IMDb. In the USA, Persuasion was released as a theatrical movie instead.

I should note that of all the titles in the database, the 1995 version of "Persuasion" probably is among the top 10 that garner questions about how it is listed. I am not sure what can be done about this, but if the IMDb staff is reading this, I suggest looking for a software solution to the problem.

I will submit the merge of the two entries myself.
