Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy Length Question
 
The zone 1 version is 324 minutes and the zone 2 version is 350 minutes,
does anyone know what are the differences. The only thing that I can think
of is the zone 1 version is a continuous run and the zone 2 version is
presented by each episode. Since I have not view any of these version, can
anyone help? 26 minutes for 7 epiosdes (average 3.71 minutes) missing?
Thanks in advance

Amazon UK and Play both report the UK release as 350 minutes, but the box
reports 315 minutes, and it actually totals 317 minutes and 4 seconds, plus
a 57 minute documentary. The 317 minutes would be a little over 330 minutes
if played at 24 fps for R1 against 25 fps for the UK, so either way there is
about a six minute discrepancy, but not as much as 26 minutes.

So it is presented one episode as a time and not a continuous 6-hour run.
Right?

Yes, on the UK version.
