ITV aired the film on Sunday 13th November 2005 (ITV4 23:05 - to who knows what hour with the adverts!!!). It may be that one? BBC1 repeated it during September 1998 and FilmFour later screened it in August 2003 (that was the television premiere of the complete version with the Italian inserts).

Thanks for the info, Montero … I’d thought it was earlier because I was recording with VHS, but now 2005 sounds right, as I didn’t have a DVD until the following year.
Cheers!

The version of Django Kill! screened in UK cinemas was only 101m long having been pre-cut (it was missing the gold digging and scalping scenes plus other non-contentious footage) and then subject to several BBFC cuts despite being X rated.
The Moviedrome screening in 1997 was missing the gold digging and scalping scenes but I think was otherwise uncut.
Rewatched this one.
A few individual scenes are very good and there is some bizarre stuff in the film as you know.
But as a whole I found the film too slow and dull, it’s nearly two hours long. Maybe a 90 minute film could have had more impact.
The scalping scene had a lot of fake blood, but the scalping at the beginning of Corbuccis Navajo Joe is more dramatic, and no blood at all.
The other notorious scene in Django Kill with the operating table is better executed.
Django Kill was shot in scope which is a plus.
