Strange that the BBFC decided to make this an additional cut. A similar shot has always been left intact in Blazing Saddles though the horsefall in that was arranged completely differently. Perhaps given the amount of tripwires used for other falls in CTD was enough to convince the BBFC to remove this one too.
If the full print of CTB was resubmitted now the sex scene would be restored. The current UK print is a distributor-edited one. |
