eisode is concerned: the episode is not about the French Revolution
(1789f), but about the days of the
"Commune" in Paris (1871) which was in fierce opostion to the new national
assembly (which was gathering in Versailles). As far as history goes, the
"Bloody Week" was the week from 21st to 28th May 1871, in which
parliamentary troops finally and "bloodily"defeated the
communards.
concerned, a historian certainly needs a considerable share of
"flexibility", especially when it comes to series 4 and later ones.

– Onedin Episodes Update/disappointedYes, the July schedule includes both the episodes that were
cut from
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.D
