iTunes - how to remove duplicate files without accidentally taking the whole lot

Just imported a my 1tb hdd into iTunes on iMac with osx 10.5.8 - many of the albums have duplicates of the songs, i.e. the whole library is listed with 2 of each repeated all the way down..

Any ideas how to fix this plz :)

You can go File > Show duplicates. Then just delete the ****ers!

i did show duplicates but was scared I might be deleting both the main file and the duplicate... is that not the case?
