Difference between US and UK version


I watched a US DVD of this last night but feel I can remember a missing scene from the UK version I watched a few years ago, but I might be wrong, hoping someone can help me.
When Tennyson is talking to the mother of the Lost Child on the stairs towards the end, the mother is saying something like, she was screaming and screaming, and I can remember from UK that Tennyson is then telling her about her own recent termination and her reasons for terminating the pregnancy.
Am I wrong.
Would be so greatful if anyone could help me.

I saw it in the US. I thought Tennison got the abortion in the middle of the film. I thought it started out with Jane in a relationship. Then, it was over but she found she was pregnant. I thought Tennison got the abortion during work hours. After she returned to her office, she cried a little by herself.

The abortion plot started in Prime Suspect 3, so maybe you're getting the details confused?

No, Tennison never reveals the abortion, until prime Suspect 7. There, she admits it to the young girl, who was a friend of the victim.

Fortunately, Ah keep mah feathers numbered for just such an emergency!
