I don’t think that the 59 minute version is the “uncut” version. Sad, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but I think that the tapes that Sad’s receiving are the same format as the tapes Acorn originally received for Seasons 2 and 3, the *uncensored* cuts. A 59 minute episode is impossible to broadcast with commercial interruptions, so Salter would have edited about 11-12 minutes out to create the uncensored international broadcast version. Sci Fi would then cut out anything that would run into commercial time, and anything deemed offensive by their Standards & Practices people. The review screeners that Salter would send out would most likely be made from the 47-48 minute broadcast masters that they provide to Sci Fi (so that reviewers would present an accurate account of what people watching the show would see). The missing 11-12 minutes would probably be considered either outtakes or deleted scenes. Again, this is just a guess based on what we’d gotten in the past, and Sad can feel free to correct me at any time. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
