I've gone through the Series Three discs to add cast/crew. The existing crew credit only lists one entry, Jimmy McGovern as 'Original Characters By.'

In episodes 1, 2, and 3 of Series Three he is credited on screen as writer. So that's how I've credited him in the profile. On the last five episodes the credited writer is Paul Abbott. Jimmy McGovern has an on screen credit of 'Series Created By.'

Does that on screen credit equate to an 'Original Characters By' for those episodes or should his name be left off because that credit choice isn't a selection available under the Crew choices.

Any advice would be welcome.

He created the series and therefor the characters. Even if he is not explicitly credited as "Original characters by" (is anybody credited with this term?) he created the original characters. It is his series and I would credit him with "Original character by" in the profile.
