Gee - that would be great if i weren't planning to sleep through most of the early morning showings.

That's great news.


>>ITV - 10:55am Muppet Christmas Carol<<
This will probably will be cut with "When Love Is Gone" taken off and it could be shown all most in widescreen

>>BBC1 - 1:45pm Muppet Treasure Island <<
Very possibly it will be uncut version with bad language

>>Channel4 - 8:15am Muppets Take Manhattan <<
This will be in widescreen for sure . The last time this movie was shown on C4 New Years Day 2000 at 9.am

Later

Danny,

What bad language in Muppet Treasure Island ?

Great news about Muppets Take Manhattan !

And i cant believe we get to see Its a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie three times !

Although byChristmas eve, I think id have watched it atleast 40 times

After "Something Better" song Billy Bones say's "How does does she blo*dly do that?" rather than "...... blomming do that?", and later the Muppet pirates in Billy's room: "Billy is Dead!, and he hasn't got the blo*dly map" instead of "....... blomming map". And much later in the film where Long John almost cutting the rope to plunge Kermit into his death, he asks Piggy "Where is the blo*dy treasure?" instead of "....... blasting treasure?". And that's all the bad language is featured.

For some reason BBFC didn't edited out the bad language in the orignal thearical (spelling?) release, but did edited out on video in the UK. The uncut version is available in the US.

But let's hope the BBC show's the uncut version

See ya

Bloody is considered bad language in the UK? Kind of strange to me. In the US that's more like a darn or shucks.

Guys,

There is also a comercial for Its a Very Merry Muppet Chritmstmas Movie and two Mcdonalds commercials starring Kermit airing on TV right now !

Oh and in The People TV Gudie there is a picture of Kermit advertising the new movie, Its great !

Paul,

Welcome to Muppet Central !

The Brits keep on coming, Hopefully we can take over the Yanks soon !




I also had to buy Sky Premiere just because of this !

But i plan on watching Elmo In Grouchland and Return To Oz on it !

Brian Henson is the voice of Jack Pumpkin Head inReturn to Oz.


But just so you guys know, I have both on DVD and Video.
