 Several scenes were cut for DVD when the eight episodes were combined into  six. Among the deletions: A five minute opening sequence of George Hamilton  riding through the countryside on a carriage before he reaches the Moore  plantation and several scenes featuring slaves working in the fields as  Chicken George returns home from England. The dvd also deletes the opening  screen credits for these sequences. The DVD does contain a short sequence at  the start of Episode 5, featuring Chicken George and Tom Moore before a  cockfight, not seen originally. The DVD also features different closing  credits than the original broadcast.
