Shouldn't there be all 9 seasons of Foyle's War available through Acorn? Mine only shows season 8 & 9.

Thanks,

Liz

@dru add to the list of missing episodes of Programs on Acorn TV.

 

Dead Still Missing Episode 1

The Great Train Robbery (2013 Series) missing episode 2 A coppers Tale.

 

Also there are only 96 Series available on Optik TV while many more series are available on the Acorn TV Website.  Why is this?

@rc Missing episodes are on the way. We're working with the vendor to get them uploaded soon.

 

To answer your second question, licensing can affect what we are able to make available for viewing.

@dru
Add to the list of missing episodes, episode 1 and of the series dead lucky.

Based on the number of missing episode, someone should do a quality audit.

Also I did a look at a a significant number of acorn tv series that are listed on their website and not on iptik and found only one series with the caveat "not available in Canada". Again acorn tv needs to do a quality audit.

Hi, I am new to this forum and not sure if I did it correctly. I hit reply to Dru to post. At the risk of repeating, I am also only getting seasons 8 and 9 of Foyle's War and getting the wrong episode for Midsomer Murders season 23 episode 1.

Do you have any kind of time frame for the many issues of missing episodes/seasons with Acorn?

Hello. We've been advised by our content team that the episode of Midsomer Murders should be corrected, and that we actually weren't given the first 7 seasons of Foyle's War which is why they're not showing. Our team is in contact with AMC directly to inquire as to why and I'll provide an update as soon as I get one.

Thank you for the Midsomer Murders correction! I shall check that out. I am baffled by the Foyle's War seasons though. If you check back in this thread, LizG (July of last year) had the same issue and within days DRU had it resolved and she confirmed all seasons were now there.

Unfortunately season 23 episode 1 is still playing Point of Balance and not The Blacktree Prophecy. Point of Balance is Season 21 episode 1. Getting a little frustrated.
