I missed that post. Getting the crew out is going to be a lot harder 
than the cast though. The cast are all in 1 place, the crew seperated 
quite widely. TV Crew will be a nightmare (have you ever looked out how 
IMDb lists that stuff?). I'll have to build up an episode list (from 
guest appearences) and then try and cross-reference it with the crew 
page (that's after I've managed to extract normal(movie) crew). My head 
hurts now...

0.21 has been on the site for a couple of hours now btw, so feel free to 
go and download it.

User-proofing :-) is indeed something that needs doing.
