Flash Gordon on ITV Good Friday

[The Unknown Cullen]

Is anyone else watching ITV's highlighted version of Flash Gordon, lol?
They seem to be cutting odd parts from the film are they really that pushed for time??

Damn you beat me to it, I was gonna start a thread

This is one of my favourite films cos its so damn naff, I've seen it so many times now but I don't think I've ever seen an uncut version cos I've only ever watched it on TV

I'm really laughing at this because its not bad language or offensive material being cut, they're just cutting random sections of the film.

The BBC surprisingly are the only terrestrial network that have shown it uncut.

I bought it on DVD a while ago as it is a true classic sci-fi.

Max Von Sydow is so funny as Ming - especially considering he was in the Exorcist.

Favourite moment for me has to be when Brian Blessed exclaims "Gordon's Alive?!?!!?"

And ex-Blue Peter presenter Peter Duncan is in it!

Can't really take this serious now since watching Big Train's version Throw him into the pit of eyes!
