via BuzzFeed

A spokesperson for the BBC told BuzzFeed that the “brief edit” was made to comply with “broadcast regulations in Asia”.


In the first episode of the new Doctor Who series, Jenny Flint (Catrin Stewart) was forced to hold her breath to protect herself from being killed by robots.



Her wife, Madame Vastra (Neve McIntosh), a reptilian alien, had to hold her breath too, but offered to share her breath with Jenny to keep her alive.
