No, they never do. Just as importantly, I wonder if the uncut version ever played on UK TV before the uncensored version premiered on Blu-ray a year or two ago? Was Dave's version uncut, I wonder?

Given how much visual imagery was lost, this was a travesty.

Looking forward to seeing FRACTURE, and I'm thoroughly enjoying the dull... er, I mean, the
Olympics. Just thought I'd redress the balance after that bad-tempered outburst from the expensive seats down front...

That'll be the hour's worth of 3-D highlights from the dull... (here I go again!), er, I mean, the
Olympics, which have been shoved away into the twilight zone, thereby guaranteeing poor viewing figures so the BBC can argue their 3-D experiment was a 'failure'...
Better news all-round: First time OAR screening for DALEKS' INVASION EARTH 2150 A.D. on C5 this afternoon. Peter Cushing, wobbly exploding models, and loads of 1960's 'futuristic' aesthetics. Who could possibly want anything more?...
