Way back in the day (think before 2000), I worked for a major cable TV company that showed films around the world. Every film had different cuts for different regions to comply with various censorship rules, licensing restrictions, dubbing, etc. Including the US. Yes, there were things that were cut from the US release that might have been in the UK release. It was nightmare to schedule everything properly everywhere. From what I can vaguely recall, a lot of errors were made, but as long as a decent effort was made by the company to censor according to their rules, most nations were ok with it.
