Line 7:
** Also, the episode "Balance of Power." The remastered version of that episode took out the hilarious moment where Kochanski {{spoiler|(really Rimmer using her holo-data)}} looks down her shirt and says, "I've seen something you haven't, squire."
** ''Kryten'' as well, for lawyer-friendly purposes presumably, for the remastered and Dave edits. Rimmer describes a group of skeletons as having 'less meat on them than a Chicken McNugget'. The other versions remove the 'Mc' part from the speech but don't cover Barrie's lips.
*** Even versions of the episode shown years after its original airing had "McNugget" in that sentence. It was removed shortly after [[McDonaldsMcDonald's]] successfully sued activists under the UK's much-more-liberal libel laws...and won.
* In the United Kingdom, there are "daytime edits" of American 1990s-to-early-to-mid-2000s sitcoms such as ''[[Friends]]'' and ''[[Scrubs]]'', in which invective and references to sex beyond [[Double Entendre]] levels is removed.
* The UK version of [[Sy Fy]] aired daytime repeats of ''[[Buffy]]'' and ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]'', both of which had large portions of violence removed. The censors seem to take particular offense to violence against women and anything that could be construed as an "imitable, dangerous action or stunt," which when it comes to [[Buffy]] is... less than rational.
