3.9 DVD Commentary

[Silktie]

Thanks lwhite. I also listened to this commentary the other day, and found their comments on the bits cut out for the European and US markets interesting. They said it was usually the B-plot that got cut, but my experience is that it is the little character moments that usually go, even if they are linked to the A-plot. I can remember for instance that when they showed this episode here (we get the European version) two of the Adam/Fiona scenes were missing, which I thought was pretty crucial to the A-plot as they showed Adam's ambivalence about what he was doing. They also cut the whole "pacing" scene between Harry and Ruth, and the bits where Harry indicated he didn't want to get the DG job. I remember being confused as to why Ruth would tell him that not getting the job was what he wanted in that last scene...
