MI-5 Season set question

I see MI-5 is coming to DVD in January and I noticed that the runtime is 360 minutes the the UK version has a runtime of 460 minutes.

Are the US dvd's the cut episodes?

Considering that A&E chopped 15 minutes off each one, changed the title from [spooks] to MI-5 and took a beautiful 16:9 composition and hacked it to 4:3...

.. this would be the year to get yourself a region-free player.

6 episodes . 60 minutes each= 360 minutes.
I'm guessing the UK set's time reflects the extras and episodes time combined.

This exclusive three-disc set includes all six episodes from the first season of this exciting spy drama, each including over ten minutes of footage not broadcast in the US. Also included is over two hours of bonus materials, featuring cast and crew interviews, deleted scenes and behind-the-scenes featurettes!

Yes, I have the R2 set and believe that is the case. The episodes are 55-60 minutes apiece and the rest is the extras, which are quite extensive.
