Yes, I heard something about that. Some kind people have uploaded the missing bit to RS if anyone is interested. Personally I'll just watch this as it is, and later get the DVDRip when that becomes available.
Didn't watch it my self (yet) was going to start watching it at 1am here yesterday but then noticed how long it was . Will get to it sooner or later. She's supposed to be the lead in the nutcracker (due out Dec 2009). Hope she is.
