Thanks. I finally managed to get the series record button to appear. I just needed to find an epg which included episode-num system / sub-title tags. However there are still cases where the series record button is not appearing.. see examples below of "working" and "not working" series record. 

Working:

For the "working" "Late Late Show" example above, note it uses the air date as the sub-title tag, with no episode-num system tag. My epg is only 3-day.. so I will have to wait to see it it picks up the next episode which is in a week's time. @TheDreadPirate I will let you know and perhaps using the air date for the sub-title is another option.

Any chance the Jellyfin code can be modified to allow the "not working" examples above to work? 

Oh and shows with the series record button are now appearing under the "Shows >" category under the Programmes tab  . Getting there!
