ITV edited scene (1988 rerun).

In the eighties when He-Man and the Masters of the Universe aired in the United Kingdom the episodes were edited on their initial run. This was because it was common practice to show cartoons without any ad breaks, and as the shows were allocated twenty minutes of airtime, the twenty-two minute episodes of He-Man had to be trimmed to fit! This video clip is an example of an extreme piece of editing from the season one episode "The Shaping Staff" when it was shown as a repeat in 1988. You can blatantly see where the edit occurs because the splice marks can be seen, as shown below...

I actually never knew that until I found this clip. Although I was 7 in 1988 so I wouldn't of know the difference.

That's an interesting little tidbit of info.
