SciFi Channel does it again

Why oh Why do they do these edits?
I’ll do a new Who Review probably tomorrow but they CUT one of my favorite scenes in the whole episode.
I found it on Youtube of course
See the insanity that is John Simm….
They *cut* *that* *out*?!?
An i thought *FOX’s* programmoing people were nimnoes.
It’ll be on the DVD set, though.
They cut that out? Wow, and I thought thier choices of where to cut for commercial were insane. (My ‘favorite’ so far was in the ep prior to this one, actually, where they cut to commercial in the middle of the phone conversation between the Doctor and the Master…)
I am grateful to have seen the episodes complete and as originally intended.
IIRC, Russell T. Davies listed that scene and the one where Martha’a mother holds a gun on the master as two they would be cutting on overseas copies to bring what was an extended episode in the UK down to standard length. So the fault may not lie with Sci-Fi in this instance.
I can’t get that wonderful looney song out of my head now…I think it really worries my wife!
