It was the episode The Calusari. There's a scene of a child being killed on an amusement park traintrack. This was a couple of years after the James Bulger murder, so the BBFC were probably wary of even passing the episode at the time.

Beat me to it there Paul! :lol:

You had the reason though so you win! :)

And yeah, now that you mention it I do remember that being the reason.

When I watch them through for the 1st time from season 2 onwards i'll see why nobody seems to like 5-9

I like them all....up until Duchovny left. Don't think I've even seen all of season 9.

Do you think it should have ended when he left

I personally thought they should. It just wasn't the same without Mulder.

What a wonderful series though. I remember all those years ago, in 1992 I seem to recall, seeing an advert for a new series on BBC2 that I thought might be interesting. The series in question, of course, was none other than The X Files. I remember watching the pilot episode, being immediately impressed and wanting more. The remainder of the episodes from the first season cemented my impression that what I was watching was a wonderful series, although none of us at that stage could have imagined the global phenomenon that it would become. Good memories indeed.

Child murders (and murderer) in this epiosde if I remember correctly. It was the BBFC kneejerk Jamie Bulger/Childs Play thing that instantly rated anything with evil kids in it an 18.

Go die! -.-
