Locate the program in Watch Recordings and press INFO. If the program
is not identifiable (aka generic), "Unidentified Episode" will be
shown at the end of the "Description" section. Note this is only
valid for "Series" type programs. You can check to see if a program
is a Series type by pressing INFO again and looking at the "Type"
section.

Sorry I've already deleted the offending recordings however there are many

What is your guide source? For programs which don't have programids,
MythTv only considers them generic when both the subtitle and
description are empty. In this case, you have an empty subtitle and
what looks like a boilerplate description. Unfortunately, MythTv
doesn't know that description is boilerplate and doesn't mark the
prgram as generic.

At this point, you've got a couple of, and maybe more, reasonable
options. One you can use a custom recording rule for "Peppa Pig" that
doesn't match empty subtitles. Two, you can change the duplicate
detection for your existing rule to "Subtitle then description". With
the latter, MythTV will record one of the generic episodes, but then
wonn't record any more unless the boilerplate description changes.
