OVERALL: Draw
All known releases have an edit to episode 5.
Details of the cut to "Episode 5" (thanks to Dene Kernohan from Roobarb's Forum):
Underlined is what's missing from the DVDs (the wide shot of Reggie and Elizabeth cuts to a close shot of Elizabeth and the scene resumes thereafter) and there's a jump cut.
"What does my happiness mean, darling? What does my success add up to? Every morning I get up, get dressed, go downstairs, have breakfast, leave the house, go down Coleridge Close, turn right into Tennyson Avenue, left into Wordsworth Drive, catch the train, arrive twenty-two minutes late, walk to Perrin Products, go in, dictate letters, hold conferences, make decisions, have lunch, make decisions, hold conferences, dictate letters, leave, catch the train to Climthorpe, arrive twentytwo minutes late, walk up Wordsworth Drive, right into Tennyson Avenue, left into Coleridge Close, go into the house I left that morning, have supper, go up the stairs I came down that morning, take off the clothes I put on that morning, clean the teeth I cleaned that morning, and get into the bed that I got out of that morning".
