- Nobody knows what the show was about.
- The shoot was so traumatic nobody will talk about it, or acknowledge that it ever took place, or admit they were even involved.
- In fact, the accidental filming of some dolphins in the river while filming cutaways was the highlight of the entire shoot.
- When the tapes go missing, the crew are relieved.
- When the tapes are found, the crew are disappointed.
- When the tapes are played, it's discovered that one is empty - it wasn't recorded on at all. The crew are relieved.
- The producer/director insists that the remaining material will be edited into a show irregardless. The crew are disappointed.
- But also relieved it's not their problem anymore. Thanks a lot, guys.
- The crew ask for their names, if they must be mentioned at all, to be "creatively" spelled in the credits.
- We still don't know what the show's about.

Argh. One such 'event' I was involved in, the producer supplied the wrong chassis to build my POVcams on, adapting it to one machine almost caused the driver to get injured, and despite all that I still wanted (and got) my name in lights as the POV tech. That was a mild disaster, what you have sounds like the Titanic of shows. My sympathies...
On the bright side, you could probably substitute a "Muppet Labs" logo for the edit suite ID and no-one would notice. Just remember to use a pseudonym.
Thanks, Ted.
I have to say it's not very often a non-fiction show has an almost-completely fictitious credits list :)
