Thunderbirds Are Go

Was looking at this show and seen that season 2 episode number 21 was missing, upon further investigation, it seems that the actual episode 21 never aired in the UK due to the Grenfell Tower fire, it has however aired in other countries which air the show. How should this be accounted for on this shows episode page? Should season 2 re-numbered to close up the missing number, Is the missing episode then listed as a special (which it currently is, but without its US airdate)? or should the missing episode be fitted in as a regular episode using its US airdate which would move it to episode 23 in the list with 3 episodes that aired after that date in the UK being listed as 24, 25 & 26?

If another network simulcasted all of the other episodes (aired them at the same time) as well, then it would be changed to that network.

If not, the Season Consistency policy states that the airdate should be left blank for those episodes.

The show was not simulcasted,

Okay so it is left with a blank airdate but should it be listed as Episode 21 as that is the order in which it should have aired or should it be listed as the last episode in that season or just listed as a special?

I would say that depends on a couple of things:

a) Do they plan on broadcasting it a later date? - In this case, it would have the new airdate/episode number

b) How do they represent the other episodes - On their site they show episode 21 as the next aired episode and it also replaced the timeslot

It wouldn't be counted as a special as aside from it not airing, it's a standard episode (unless you know anything else).

From the looks of it, I'd say at the end as our order is always based on airdate and they've not said when (or if) Inferno (episode name) will air in the UK.

It would be best for us to add a show wiki just to clarify it though.
