Hi
I have no idea if this series has cuts. I haven’t seen it in ages but have happy memories of watching the early episodes with my Mum and Dad on a Sunday evening.If there are cuts and help is needed to restore them I’m happy to assist where I can if needed.
Thanks for the reply. Since my message I have heard that the cut episodes I mentioned, which I watched on youtube, according to someone who has the actual DVDs, told me that the uploader has edited the episodes, why I don’t know as the music used was already a cover version on the DVDs anyway and there would’ve been no reason to cut them to avoid youtube’s copyright policy. I also came across a torrent file of the same episode in much higher quality than the youtube upload (again from the DVD release), and it too has the same cut, so either the DVD themselves are cut or someone has edited the episode, file shared it on a torrent site and then used the same edit and uploaded it to youtube. I will buy the DVD from series 2 and see if it’s uncut. I am quite good at video editing and have managed to edit a few episode together using the DVD version I found and an original broadcast recording which has the Beatles songs included. My intention is to use the DVDs and redub the original music as used on the original ITV broadcast with the available tape recordings I have and some Britbox versions which also used the original songs, pretty much what the Only Fools and Horses fans are doing with the cut episodes. Pretty easy to do if you know about video and audio editing.
