English Muffins....again

The saga of The Missing Scene continues.......
Apparently Pushkin got his copies from an outfit called Forum NL, who claim to be Ben's European distibutors (really?): their response to news of the cut scene was, to summarise, shrugged shoulders. Not good enough, by several kilometres.
Next course of action is to see what response, if any, I get from these guys, as I assume other Ben titles may have been similarly bowdlerised.
Then, direct to Ben to see if he's aware of the situation.
The only remotely plausible motive I have been able to come up with to account for the excision is if it was to enable it to fit onto a 2-hour tape.
NOBODY deprives me of Nicky Berry and gets away with it.....

Don't think it's Big Ben's fault, Buttsie: looks like these 'distributors' are playing fast and loose with his material.
PS: am mailing you as we speak but my OE is playing up.
Normal service will be resumed.... Godnose when.

I have the STB version, and it's uncut: I was after an original, alas, to replace it.
