Thanks for the help, but the problems are:-

1. While imdb has s02e01 listed as 2017 the rest of season 2 is listed as 2018 and they wont look up with that year.
2. I'm using themoviedb add-on so have no access to imdb dates anyway.

The problem is that at the episode level in Kodi, where I'm doing the cast lookup, Kodi returns ListItem.Year as the year for the episode, what I really need is a way to get the year for the base TV Show at the episode level, much like ListItem.TVShowTitle returns the base TV Show title at the episode level.

It's probably going to be easier to just use embuary helper for episode cast lookups, Thanks anyway.
