This, you may recall, is a fondly-recalled 80s show that ran about 45 mins.<br>They're showing it in 25 minutes. <p>We're talking so many cuts you can't follow a damn thing. This isn't editing, it's bastardisation.<br>God help us if they ever secured rights to something really important. So, I say, death to channel 5.<p>(I shall also place a bounty on the head of all it's continuity announcers.
