So does this mean we no longer have a list of programmes where we are
fixing the upstream provider?  Are we going to start the Prog Titles
To Process from scratch to meet the new standard?

I personally think Family Fortunes is correct as it is but a relaunch
of a show after this number of years in my opinion the title All New
Blockbusters makes more sense whatever the upstream provider says.

Wikipedia also says All New Blockbusters for what that is worth also.

I do see your reasoning however but I am not sure how we can handle
duplicate episode numbers for the same programme title?

It also makes it very difficult and time consuming to find the new
shows out of a list of all the shows with the same title.

Thanks
