OK, I've found a duplicate. This is what was previously recorded :


select starttime,description,seriesid,programid from oldrecorded where title = 'Robin Hood' and subtitle = 'Cause and Effect';

Robin's back to his old self now - it didn't him take long to get over Marian. But that still leaves a damsel-shaped hole in the main cast, which is filled tonight by Joanne Froggatt as Kate, a feisty peasant with a can-do attitude and a reason to hate Gisborne (everyone needs one of those - he's like a whipping boy). Kate falls in with the outlaws when her brother is among those forcefully conscripted by the Sheriff's men to form an army. What does the Sheriff want an army for? He doesn't, but he needs money and there's a pair of ill-matched Irish brothers who are willing to pay for fighting men, in a plot that makes less and less sense the more you think about it. But why would you do that? This isn't Ibsen, it's romping children's entertainment, as blunt and harmless as the swords the characters wave about, and enjoyable all the way.

The repeat showing tomorrow night has the description :
The rightful king of Ireland needs soldiers to help liberate his country, so the Sheriff sells him an army made up of local men. The outlaws set out to rescue the conscripts, joined by villager Kate, whose brother is among the reluctant soldiers - but Robin is caught, shackled and taken to the castle, leaving Tuck to launch an ambush. Joanne Froggatt joins the cast. (Widescreen, Subtitles Available, Rerun)
seriesid:98756
programid:EP9875623

Old program was on BBC1, the repeat is on BBC3.


As an aside, it looks like the program id is <something><series id><episode><series>. Is that a "standard" and Myth derives the series and episode from it (in which case, what happens when there's more than 9 series ro episodes ?), or is the series/episode data held elsewhere (the above pulled from the program table) ?
