Star Trek The Next Generation Banned Clip "The High Ground"

submitted by pumkinandstorm

1 decade 1 year 4 months ago

(youtube) This clip is taken from an episode called 'The High Ground'. The result of this short conversation, and the general theme of the program being centered around insurgency as a means to achieve freedom, led to the B.B.C (The British Broadcasting Corporation- Britain's national broadcaster) and Sky (Satellite Broadcaster) putting a ban on showing the episode.

I'm in the UK and I've definitely seen this exchange on TV.

From wiki: "...this episode was not originally shown on free-to-air television in the United Kingdom for many years... The episode was broadcast unedited in May 2006 on Sky One and finally shown unedited on BBC Two during the third season's repeats after midnight in September 2007"

Just watched this on Dish Network a couple weeks ago, while sitting in a Hyundai dealership waiting for an auto-start to get put on.

One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter...

OMG I think my moral philosophy has been irreparably altered by watching this incredibly persuasive argument, I think my only possible course of action is to instigate an armed rebellion against our self appointed censors...

We can't let them dirty Irish have any more excuses for violence!
