original version of kitten kong- lost or found or


original version of kitten kong- lost or found-or what in the world is going on. except for the black and white copies, every site I read has stated that omnly 2 versions of kitten kong were ever made and aired. the original and the montreaux. Every site also stated there is no way I could have dseen the original here in Anerica around 1976 since the original was wiped before the show was ever sold to America. and that the only version which aired on tv in the U.S. is the montreaux version. Yet the version on youtube is definitely different than the one aired on tv in Anerica around 1976. so if these sites are correct that the only version ever aired in the U.S is the montreaux version, theen the youtube version must be the original version!!!! although I find that very unlikely. especially since no mentions were made of it differing from the dvd version. plus the fact it has been stated several times that only the montreaux version currently exists. I assume the youtube posting is the same version on dvd, and every site I read stated the version on the dvds is the montreaux version. However, if the ites are correct that the dvd version is the montreaux version, them what I saw on American tv in the 1970s around 1976 must have been the original version which means the original version was indeed the one sold to America in the 1970s. not the montreaux version. now, I am not saying or claiming the version on American tv in the 70s was the original, since I do not know which version of the two is the original and which is the montreaux. All I know is that the two are definitely different versions. In the version I frequently saw on American tv, immediately after Graeme sees the giant kitten for the first time, there is a closeup of a horrified graeme facing the camera and yelling what did you do to my pussy, and the onscreen words end of part 1, then the fake commercials, then part 2. In the youtube version, there is no such scene in part 1,but there is an alternate take of it in part 2 of the youtube version. This alternate take has graeme shaking another goodie while graeme yells what did you do to my pussy. however, it is a calmer yell than the other and is sort of a side view instead of graemes face towards the camera.

The YouTube version is the same as the DVD (The Montreaux version). It is possible that the BBC produced the US copy before the original was destroyed.
