Could it simply be that you need to pick a different field from the
provided data to achieve your goal?

I have no idea if other programmes e.g. Eastenders were of a different
format but if I look at this one - m001wbsc - it shows this :-
firstbcastdate:  2024-02-15

I agree that some of the dates provided are not of the same format
episodeshort:    15/02/2024

As suggested above, just try a different field?
