Notes
Pilot: feature-length episode (shown three times)
Season 1: 22 episodes (all shown three times)
Season 2: 22 episodes (all shown twice)
Season 3: 22 episodes (all shown twice + extra repeat of AND THE ROCK CRIED OUT, NO HIDING PLACE)
Season 4: 22 episodes (all shown + repeat of THE DECONSTRUCTION OF FALLING STARS)
Season 5: 22 episodes (all shown twice)The pilot episode has been shown three times. The second showing is not listed above because it was shown independently as a film and not tagged onto any of the seasons. The pilot episode was first shown after season one had aired on Channel Four. The season one episode TKO was shown in a late night time-slot because Channel Four deemed it unsuitable for its regular time-slot of 6:00pm.
Cuts were made by Channel Four to the following episodes:
Season One: AND THE SKY FULL OF STARS, and DEATHWALKER.
Season Two: THE COMING OF SHADOWS, and COMES THE INQUISITOR.
Season Three: CONVICTIONS, A DAY IN THE STRIFE, PASSING THROUGH GETHSEMANE, MESSAGES FROM EARTH, POINT OF NO RETURN, CEREMONIES OF LIGHT AND DARKNESS, and GREY 17 IS MISSING.
Season Five: THE VERY LONG NIGHT OF LONDO MOLLARI (Sunday), and LEARNING CURVE (Sunday) and almost all of the remainder of season five episodes shown on Sunday's and during the Christmas holidays.Season four was shown in a late night time-slot, therefore it could be screened uncut. Season five was shown twice: Sunday afternoons, where cuts were made to some episodes, and the early hours of Tuesday morning uncut.
However, the repeat showings of all seasons of Babylon 5 in the early hours of Monday morning, Channel Four were still showing the cut versions of some episodes. Given the time-slot they should have been uncut. After showing the first three seasons Channel Four decided not to continue with seasons four and five. This is the reason they gave:
"Babylon 5 was originally shown in its entirety on Channel Four some years ago. After this initial showing, 4later was given additional screenings of series one, two, and three by Channel Four's acquisitions department but not unfortunately the rights to series four and five. Sadly having investigated their availability, we suspect they might be too expensive for 4Later to afford."
This conflicted with information given out at the start of the repeat screenings when they indicated that all seasons were going to be screened. This statement seems to indicate that 4later and Channel Four are run has two separate entities.
Channel Four repeated the episode PASSING THROUGH GETHSEMANE three times because during the first repeat showing of this episode, it was delayed by 50 minutes due to coverage of the Cricket, so many people missed the episode since the time-slot is in the early hours of the morning and most people record the show, therefore Channel Four obtained the rights to rebroadcast this episode some weeks later.
Babylon 5 had it's UK debut on Channel Four on the 16 May 1994.
Babylon 5 ran from the 16 May 1994 to 1 January 1999.
Channel Four had the world premiere of the season one final episode, the last four season two episodes, and the last five season three episodes.
Four TV movies were also made: IN THE BEGINNING, THIRDSPACE, THE RIVER OF SOULS and A CALL TO ARMS. All are available on video including a widescreen version.
IN THE BEGINNING was shown on Channel Four on Sunday 30 January 2000, repeated on Wednesday 11 July 2001, and THIRDSPACE on Sunday 23 July 2000, repeated Thursday 12 July 2001.
A repeat showing of the episode AND THE ROCK CRIED OUT, NO HIDING PLACE was shown in 2001 to replace the scheduled WWF Heat. Since C4 stated they had no more rights to show Babylon 5, then why did they then show this one episode?
