Where the hell did Pink Eye go? (UK question)

Hi all, What happened to 'Pink Eye'? According to the ep lists I've seen, 'Pink Eye' is *before* 'Satan vs. Jesus', but it wasn't aired. Tomorrow's ep (on Ch 4) is supposed to be 'Starvin' Marvin' and next week's is 'Mr Hankey, the Christmas Poo'. What's going on???

Thanks for your help,

Hm... Pink Eye is the Halloween episode... it SHOULD air before Starvin Marvin... could it be that the extreme violence (ripping up zombies with a chainsaw, zombies eating chunks out of people) made TV censors decide not to air the episode?

No, that can't be it. Channel 4 is the only channel without a censorship program except that of the advertising complaints commission board thingy. (Gee, look at that technical speak! Woo!) Channel 4 shows *way* worse things than South Park, believe you me, did anyone see the Prince Albert on "Queer Street" the other night? Bleurgh! Anyway, the only *slightly* possible reason I can think of is that there was a bomb scene in it somewhere? I know that programmes have been pulled because of recent events in Northern Ireland, but even then, 'Pink Eye' was supposed to air 6 days after the bomb, not on a "mainstream" channel and Channel 4 never really censor their programmes even in this way? I'm still konfewsed! I want 'Pink Eye'!!!! And I want Scott Baio to give it to me! <bg>

The reason they skipped Pink Eye was becuase of the Omegh bombing. Cos That episode had people dieing. However, they are showing it on 11/9/98. so its not so bad.

How do I know this? I read it on the channel 4 web site.

But do you know the UK start date for Series 2?? I'm sure someone mentioned 3rd October, but I wasn't too sure if this was confirmed or not.

Any ideas folks?

So I guess they're not showing any of the episodes where Kenny dies either? :)
