With a total of 34 cuts (+ black screen / credits) 103,16 seconds (= 01:43 min.) are missing.

The runtime information has been taken from the uncut Blu-ray, the specified cut length per cut and in total, however, reported in PAL.

The BD starts slightly earlier.
1.24 sec.

1.40 sec.



10:50 min.
Bond gives the pilot an elbow strike and then starts choking him.
2.20 secs.



11:22 min
Next attempt: Bond grabs the pilot again and starts choking him.
0.88 secs.



11:28 min.

36:12 min.

14.08 secs.



42:18 min
Hinx grabs Guerra by the neck and slams him head first onto the table. He then grabs the visibly dazed man and starts pressing his thumbs into his eye sockets.
9.00 secs.



42:38 min.
Perhaps not censorship on purpose, however, ITV tonally shifts the hit feedback as Guerra's head hits the table to this shot, but thereby covers up the fact that he is actually moaning in pain at this point due to the thumbs in his eyes.
No time difference.



42:43 min.
Hinx pulls his, now bloody thumbs, back out of Guerra's eye sockets and then snaps his neck with a jerk. In the middle of the latter's fall to the ground, the ITV version also resumes.
5.56 secs.



42:57 min
After the work is done, Hinx still looks at his outstretched palms, takes out a handkerchief from his jacket and wipes the blood from his thumbs with it.

44:10 min.
The henchman falls a little longer and lands on the huge conference table.
1.40 secs.



59:30 min.

The beginning of the shot and how Mr. White's head sinks into his neck has been shortened.
1.52 sec.



01:02:53 min.
Due to a commercial break, the end of the shot was cut here.
0.68 sec.



01:33:34 min.

9.32 secs.



01:34:11 min
Bond grabs the ice pick on one of the tables, but can't counter Hinx too much with it either.
6.84 secs.



01:35:10 min
Madeleine gets choked some more by Hinx and sinks to her knees. At the same time Bond arrives from behind and puts the rope around the opponent's neck and starts choking him.
4.84 secs.



01:35:16 min.
ITV now reinserts the scene of Bond putting the rope around Hinx's neck from behind, but also cuts a short moment of him being choked by Bond.
