Case File, marketed by BBC America as Yaz's Case File, was a series of webcasts released as a tie-in with series 11 of Doctor Who in 2018. It was scripted by Jacqueline Rayner. As the BBC America name implied, they were a mini-recap of the episodes but from Yasmin Khan's perspective. As such, they contained little new information that wasn't already obvious to the viewer of the main Doctor Who episode. The series was similar in format to Monster Files, seen during the late RTD/early Moffat era. It also shared some commonality with Sarah Jane's Alien Files that was released with The Sarah Jane Adventures for a time — although that series had more content that was not seen in the accompanying episode. The series stood in contrast to Tardisodes and prequels, two types of short-form programming that offered wholly new narrative rather than explorations of concepts and creatures already featured in televised stories.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
