include searched regex text also in output

I'm using regex re.findall(r"[0-9]+(.*?)\.\s(.*?)[0-9]+", text) to get below text

8    EXT./INT. MONORAIL - MORNING 8
9    EXT. CITY SCAPE/MONORAIL - CONTINUOUS 9

But my current output doesn't have the prefix and suffix numbers. I'm trying to have the prefix digits also in the output as follows.

9    EXT. CITY SCAPE/MONORAIL - CONTINUOUS 

Any help greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

(The current output is given below)

You can use

(?m)^([0-9]+)\s*(.*?)\.\s(.*?)(?:\s*([0-9]+))?$

See the regex demo. *Details:

• (?m) - a multiline modifier
• ^ - start of string
• ([0-9]+) - Group 1: one or more digits
• \s* - zero or more whitespaces
• (.*?) - Group 2: zero or more chars other than line break chars as few as possible
• \.\s - a dot and a whitespace
• (.*?) - Group 3: zero or more chars other than line break chars as few as possible
• (?:\s*([0-9]+))? - an optional occurrence of zero or more whitespaces and then Group 4 capturing one or more digits
• $ - end of line.
