thank you and sorry for not checking this.

Just an FYI - the user who asked originally about this has gone through and re-ordered to the new revisionist numbering in case this is not desired.

I'd appreciate it if someone take a look at the credits in https://www.tvmaze.com/episodes/2393182/doctor-who-s13-special-the-power-of-the-doctor, they don't look right.

Firstly, only the Doctor (Whittaker), Yaz, Dan, Ace, and Teagan are listed in the opening credits, which kind of makes them the only main cast, at least compared to all previous episodes. And secondly, I don't think that the British TV crediting system even has a concept of "special guest stars". In any case, no one was specifically credited as a "special guest star" at the end of the episode.

Discussing within staff at the moment. The opening credits listed 5 names and then the credits were completely different at the end to any normal episode of the show. A mixture of those 5 names mixed in with other "stars" then the guest cast list as normal and then another list right at the end of that normal guest cast list.

Well, not that different from The Day of the Doctor, for example.
I mean, adding a bunch of actors to the show's main cast just because they made a cameo in one special episode is a bit excessive, don't you think?

As I said it's been discussed within staff - some are fans and haven't watched yet. We credit as is displayed on screen, what's displayed on screen isn't clear so will be discussed and then we will reach a decision.

Staff decided that it is fine as they are listed now. We only go by the on-screen details, it does not matter how small or big a role is. :)

Could I get some help updating The Patrick Star Show from The Futon Critic? We now have the airdates/times for "The Uncredible Journey", "Host-a-Palooza", "Backpay Payback", and "House Hunting" ("The Tidal Zone" should not be added as it was previously discussed that it should only be listed on the main series).
