the BBC/Playback videos – Cry of the Blackbird and Bloody Week (the
latter is about the French Revolution).
Regarding your query about the cut, I don't know if your example was
cut, but many cuts were made to the BBC/Playback and Dutch commercial
released videos. A lot were very small cuts of a few seconds here
and there, others were longer. A couple of examples of scenes cut:
the scene at the start of episode 3 where Anne is talking to her
father and holds her wedding dress; and in episode 4 the scene near
the end involving James, Robert and the companion in the warehouse.
The latter puts a very different complexion on the outcome of the
story.
