Welcome to the Babylon 5 (UK) Episode Guide! Don't be put off by the fact
|
|
that it has a UK bias though as most of the information (i.e. the actual
|
|
episode guide part and list of edits) is relevant to whatever country you
|
|
are in!
|
|
|
|
This guide is actually a portion of a much larger guide which I have split
|
|
up due to the growing size of the guide. To download other seasons look

PILOT MOVIE NARRATION
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
"I was there at the dawn of the third age of mankind. It began in
|
|
the Earth year 2257 with the founding of the last of the Babylon
|
|
stations, located deep in neutral space. It was a port of call for
|
|
refugees, smugglers, businessmen, diplomats and travellers from a
|
|
hundred worlds. Could be a dangerous place, but we accepted the
|
|
risk because Babylon 5 was our last, best hope for peace.
|
|
|
|
"Under the leadership of its' final commander, Babylon 5 was a dream
|
|
given form... a dream of a galaxy without war, when species from
|
|
different worlds could live side by side in mutual respect... a
|
|
dream that was in danger as never before by the arrival of one man
|
|
on a mission of destruction.
|
|
|
|
"Babylon 5 was the last of the Babylon stations. This is its'
|
|
story..."

SEASON 1 NARRATION
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
"It was the dawn of the third age of mankind, ten years after the
|
|
Earth/Minbari War. The Babylon Project was a dream given form.
|
|
Its' goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where humans
|
|
and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port
|
|
of call, home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs
|
|
and wanderers; humans and aliens wrapped in two million, five
|
|
hundred thousand tons of spinning metal... all alone in the night.
|
|
It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last, best hope for peace.
|
|
This is the story of the last of the Babylon stations. The year is
|
|
2258. The name of the place is Babylon 5."

[5] SEASON 1 UK EDITS
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
All information included here are based on edits made on 1st run episodes.
|
|
Repeated episodes that may have been further edited are not included. If
|
|
you know of any other edits, e-mail me all the details!
|
|
|
|
Edits are listed in the format:-
|
|
|
|
[ep. #] [title]
|
|
[edited scenes]
|
|
|
|
A02) "The Soul Hunter"
|
|
|
|
a) Just before the tramp is killed by the other tramp with the knife,
|
|
there has been a 1-2 second edit where you should have seen a close
|
|
up of the knife the killer is holding.
|
|
|
|
A07) "The War Prayer"
|
|
|
|
a) In the teaser with the Minbari poet being stabbed, you only see a
|
|
flash of the butterfly knife (a martial arts knife, a.k.a. ballisong)
|
|
twice and then the stabbed Minbari poet fall down before being
|
|
branded. You don't see the actual stabbing.
|
|
|
|
The US version shows the knife 3 times and then the actual stabbing.
|
|
|
|
b) The scene where the Oriental pro-earth man is attacked by aliens is
|
|
cut. Basically he gets beaten up a lot more in the US version! The
|
|
UK version lasts 17 seconds. The US version lasts 42 seconds.
|
|
|
|
A08) "And the Sky Full of Stars"
|
|
|
|
a) In the scene where Sinclair has the complete version of his flashback
|
|
of the "Battle of the Line", he says "Not like this, not like this,
|
|
if I'm going out I'm taking you with me."
|
|
|
|
In the US version he actually says "Not like this, not like this, if
|
|
I'm going out I'm taking you bastards with me."
|
|
|
|
A09) "Deathwalker"
|
|
|
|
a) In the teaser where Jha'dur is attacked by Na'Toth, you see Na'Toth
|
|
beating Jha'dur onto the ground - suddenly she miraculously has a
|
|
metal staff/wrench in her right hand and is about to strike Jha'dur
|
|
before getting held back. What you don't see is the edit where
|
|
Na'Toth picks up the wrench and hits Jha'dur a couple of times, and
|
|
boy-o-boy was it painful!
|
|
|
|
A10) "Believers"
|
|
|
|
a) After Franklin has performed the operation on Shon, his parents see
|
|
him and back off, start chanting and the father draws a knife. The
|
|
knife scene is cut and you see them back off slightly - suddenly
|
|
Sinclair shouts at Franklin.
|
|
|
|
A11) "Survivors"
|
|
|
|
a) The scene where Garibaldi is fighting Cutter during the countdown is
|
|
edited. You did not see Cutter draw a knife.
|
|
|
|
A14) "TKO"
|
|
|
|
a) This episode was not aired originally due to Channel 4 deeming that
|
|
the content of the violence ('alien bare-knuckle kick-boxing') was
|
|
too strong for a 6pm showing, so they skipped this episode completely
|
|
during the original run.
|
|
|
|
After much UK fan pressure, they finally aired the episode (un-cut)
|
|
on Saturday, 21 January 1995 @ 10.35pm.
|
|
|
|
A18) "A Voice in the Wilderness, Part 1"
|
|
|
|
a) The scene in the bar where Garibaldi thumps the man who is making
|
|
remarks about the people on the Mars colony has been edited.
|
|
