Pictorial Weekly (1970–1982)
9/10
Why do IMDb insist on keeping the wrong title?
1 November 2008
Is it a data processing thing? On at least a dozen occasions I have posted a correction ... the show was always called "Hall's Pictorial Weekly". It was NEVER called "Pictorial Weekly" (and certainly never called "Hall's Pictorial Weekly Ireland" which has been posted as an alternate title). If you check any reference source around, from scholarly histories of Irish television to Wikipedia to the RTE website where "Best Of" DVDs are for sale, they ALL have the same (correct) title: "Hall's Pictorial Weekly". But for some reason, IMDb refuse to accept that.

Thank you, I'm glad I got that off my chest.

Oh, and it was a superb and often savage show, at a time when Irish television comedy was an oxymoron.
