    1. Brilliant! I was unaware of that but the Mork and Mindy Wiki (yes, really) reveals all, specifically "The episode featuring the character Arnold Wanker was extensively edited when transmitted on the British network ITV ... when the episode was repeated on the more liberal Channel Four, some years later no alterations were made."
