Then again at the second section they obviously had logo free model shots from the production that able the German company add german title on it. Very interesting variaton after all. 

When I watched the first episodes of B&B for the first time ever, they were in German with Polish subtitles. I couldn't get used to hearing different voices, but the woman who voiced Caroline was my favourite one.

I also wondered about the reasons some countries invested in changing the titles and even music sometimes, like in France or Italy.

I believe B&B at the time had 2 versions of this episode - one for North American distribution, and the other for International distribution. The scene they used in place of the lovemaking in international versions was a different cut for sure.

That's interesting. I always assumed it was due to different parental guidelines in both countries. In the USA, it's officially not appropriate for children under 14, whereas in Poland it's 12.

It was only recently that the U.S. had "bonus scenes" that you can only see on cbs.com. These scenes were deleted from the U.S. version, but are put in the international versions. 

Confirmed! It was always around 21 minutes in Poland.

I think this lovemaking scene was very bold, even for the B&B standards. I don't recall a similar scene between any other characters, even with Owen and Jackie. In fact, I believe this was the only case when Poland censored an episode - Brooke & Deacon's moaning part was entirely removed. 

This Google Group with the updates seems like a very valuable source! I came across the message from 12/1989 and somebody mentioned that Caroline would leave the show in July 1990. I am surprised people were aware of that fact half a year before. 

@BoldRestless @BoldKara Thanks for the confirmation! 

@BoldKara Why do you think some episodes are missing? The Hollywood Show seems to be presented in good order. I don't know the exact dates, but if my notes are correct these are 1682-1697 episodes.

Nikki N sent an email this morning saying she added 15 more 1993 episodes. I think they're in a folder for December (I haven't looked).

That's amazing news! Send her a huge thanks for the contribution! I love the whole James/Taylor/Damon story from those December episodes. Just out of curiosity, does Nikki still have some 1992 episodes? I remember some of them were blocked when she uploaded them on YouTube.

I remember watching some parts from the episodes form 1988-1990 and I didn't understand what the timeline was. And now still can't believe we have the consecutive episodes form the very first seconds to the last ones. Many thanks for constantly making this dream to come true! 

Whenever I checked the Vault I sort things from the newest ones and check the dates, that's the easiest one to find the recently added clips.

The 15th is 26 January 2000...and it is there....I uploaded some time ago

Huge thanks for those episodes! I think that one is missing - #3220 from January 20, in which Thorne and Macy missed each other. January 20 in the Vault is therefore labelled incorrectly as it is January 21.

Yes, I've just seen it. I hope the person will be able to create an account after all. Thanks for the message!

your angel is here

Can't thank you enough!

@divinemotion B&B helped me more than once too! It's a great world to sink into. I wish you all the best and I'm sending only positive thoughts to you!  

She's the one I was talking about earlier. I remembered there was somebody else between Dr. Oshiro and Taylor. She's credited in #793.

St. Thomas is my favourite too. Mostly because it involves Taylor, and so is Venice in a small way. But I vividly remember the episodes with Amber telling Rick the truth, Tawny chasing Becky, Brooke's "cheating" on Thorne. I loved that era of B&B

I have just uploaded the first episode of The Venice adventures ( 6th January 2000) in the vault! Enjoy it!

One of my favourite on location storylines! Thank you!

This is is indeed marvellous. I'm now optimistic that we will get at least the first 1000 episodes eventually... 

 I don't want to get my hopes up, but it seems they are not stopping with the episodes, so let it continue! 

All the first 800 episodes in English and in a very good quality. This is the best!

Hidden treasures I didn't even know I had! Can you imagine what's hiding out there unbeknownst in the world?

Hopefully the treasures will resurface at some point

What are you talking about?Amy's episodes have original closings.

Only the first and last ones have the original closings. Apart from them, only with random episodes she left the original closings. She removed them because as you can see in the 751+, there's always a pop up with the next episode add. And Amy tried not to reveal her source.

does anyone know a good photo resource site/page/forum? I search in http://www.thecelebritycity.com/. And have you noticed that there are no new photo recaps since Covid-19 episodes? all sites around the web repost picture recaps from April's episodes. Sorry if i ask in the wrong place.

I encountered the same problem. I used soap.sheknows for daily recap photos that I use on my fandom, but there are no new photos since the return, only screencaptures...

Thank you! Always nice to see the original closings, which had been removed from Amy's episodes.

How can we pay for the Videoland site.. It says it's not for my country. Do we give up on getting new episodes...

It's for Dutch people only. Outside their country you need to use VPN or change proxy settings. But even with the free 2 weeks trial they still ask you to pay some money for the registration. I wouldn't feel safe paying through the VPN. I love B&B, but still. Two years ago we didn't have those 774 first episodes, so I believe that one day we'll get the rest.

I have just uploaded the next one...26 January...Rick discovers the truth...beautiful episode....the problem is that it takes me a lot of time to upload because my internet conexion is slow...

Real treasure, thank you! 

I agree with the majority. Nikki bought the 1993+ episodes, but she is willingly sharing them with us for free. After all, what is the point of having the episodes only for oneself? And if working on the episodes is too costly - simply don't do that.
