Poldark 2 Playback DVDS Drastically Edited.......2007-08-10

This description page doesn't state how many minutes Series 2 - Part 1 is; well, it's 340 minutes long. Part 2 is, as stated on its page, 325. That is 665 minutes for Poldark 2. My (US ntsc) videos of Series 2 runs 720 minutes long. On the back of these Playback sets it's stated that "for contractual reasons certain edits have been made." In the case of Series 2 they mean they've edited out 55 minutes. I haven't figured out how many minutes are missing (and I'm just talking about the US videos which for all I know are edited from the original broadcast on the bbc) from the Playback Series 1 sets but I think we can expect the same treatment -- basically that about an hour of the series will be missing. I am so sorry I didn't know about the edits when I bought these and that I didn't do any research on length. I made an assumption that getting PAL dvds (we don't have the Poldark series' on dvd on Region 1), made in the UK, I'd be getting at least as much footage as I had on my old videos. I regret I made this purchase and am writing this to warn anyone who has these on video to count minutes and compare and maybe to wait before you move to dvds. I've read that the Australian dvd editions are the most complete but compared to what I'm not sure; even so, it's something to look into. For those who don't have the series' at all it's really sad, scandalous actually, that we would be better off buying the very expensive oop video sets if we don't want to be cheated of a whole hour (it might be more if the comparison were made with the original UK videos for I don't know how many minutes they boasted) than to buy these condensed dvd versions from Playback. It should go without saying my one-star rating is for the subject dvd editions, not the miniseries' themselves, both of which I would rate all the stars in existence.
