Exceptional news! I can't see the BBFC maintaining the cuts now, but they have surprised me before!
There's no justification for cutting the cat on mouse "nature footage" and the cat to chair bit is quite clearly not a real moggie!
Whatever, even if the BBFC succumb to absurdity (as they have a history of doing...
), well done to Arrow for getting out a UK DVD of this bizarrely neglected film!
