MI-5 \ Spooks DVD differences???
Hi Folks!
I just got an email from A&E informing me that the season 1 box set of "MI-5" is now available... which I believe is old news.
Anyway, I already own the R2 "Spooks" season 1 set and was
curious as to whether the MI-5 DVD episodes were "cut" like the TV episodes, as "Spooks" is on the BBC in the UK and therefore doesn't have commercials.
For some reason I'm really paranoid about my region-free player - and thus my R2 stuff - and so like to "swap out" titles to R1 when they become available... IF they're not cut.
Anyone know? Thanks!
Rex
PS - I did a forum search before this but didn't come up with anything.

From what I've heard, only the opening credits are different.

Could be... I thought it was more of an attempt to explain what the series was about/generate interest. I mean if you see "spooks" listed in the TV guide your first thought would probably be ghosts not spies.
