perhaps loop through each stage and check its children
root = ET.fromstring(xmldata)
stages = root.findall("./ep_150/stage")
print '\n\nreviews for id=p4645\n'
for stage in stages:
children = stage.getchildren()
for child in children:
if child.attrib['id']=='p4645':
print('%s - %s' % (stage.attrib['name'],
child.attrib['name']))
