If you're fetching the 'airing' data set (now labeled 'tv schedule' on
the IMDb web server), yes.
I thought you also wanted the airing notice you see in the list of
episodes, but as said it's probably served only for north-american
territories.

Exactly, a very odd combination of causes: the code was written to
parse airing dates for movies and tv series; the table for episodes
is different only for not yet aired episodes, so nobody noticed
it until now (feeling lucky? ;-)

Anyway, I said it would take some time to fix the problem.
I suppose one hour qualifies as "some time", if you consider I
also took a shower. :-)

It should be fixed in the SVN; try it, if you can (the code I've
written in my previous email now works):
  http://imdbpy.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=download#svn

The format of the data can look a bit strange, but it should be
consistent with the data returned for a tv series.


Thanks!
