I don't get it either. My guess is the insane amount of commercials they show might have something to do with it. Ugh. I mean it still made sense but they left out some of the best stuff. The left out the scene where Dan's character was trying to see over all the tall people in the class on how to deliver a baby and also where they were fighting to get the bathtub in his office.

As for DVD's unless it's region free it has to be a region 1 or it won't work here. I think it different with blu rays though, I've seen some that are region free but I haven't tried it. My luck it wouldn't work,lol.

Commercials I guess I could live without the scenes you said were taken out if it means the story still makes sense, but those scenes >>>> commercials.

Series 2 Episode 1 synopsis

Quote:
It is 1918 and the Civil War rages throughout Russia, but has not yet reached the Young Doctor’s remote little hospital in Mureyvo. It is actually an oasis of tranquility for him. He is in a relationship with Pelageya, albeit one based on companionship more than love, as she is able to facilitate and conceal his morphine addiction.

Fast-forward to 1935 and the Old Doctor is in Moscow being discharged from the institution he was sent to at the end of series one. He is bright, upbeat and most importantly cured.

He returns to his memories of 1918. In contrast to Series 1, he now loves life and is no longer sneering towards his younger self.

A letter arrives informing the hospital that the Zemstvo is coming for an inspection, sending the Young Doctor and Pelageya into a panic as they might discover the shortfall in morphine. The shortfall is a quart, or “basically a pond,” as Pelegaya puts it.

Under the watchful eyes of the Old Doctor, they cover their tracks by filling some morphine bottles with water. A short while later their tranquility is shattered by the arrival of a group of injured Bolshevik soldiers and the Young Doctor must get to work.

Considering he still struggles years later (as we saw in the first series) with addiction it's not likely. Unless we are to consider this to be like Back to the Future scenario and he's trying to change his past by influencing his former self from making the wrong choices.

I'm OK with seeing young Docs downward spiral b/c we see his future self get clean (and he better stay clean)

I'm excited to see an older doc who loves life and wants to hug everyone.

I wouldn't say scared but he does look concerned. Or maybe disturbed because he's waltzing with his imaginary older self.
