英文报道：武媚娘传奇被删减

A Chinese television drama that was pulled off the air for "technical reasons" after the characters were shown in revealing clothing is now back on TV showing only the actor`s heads.

由于剧中人物穿着暴露的“技术原因”，《武媚娘传奇》一度遭到停播;近日，这部国产电视剧携仅剩 “大头照”的演员重回荧幕。

The drama, "The Empress of China" also known as the "Saga of Wu Zetian", highlights the life of China`s only known empress. It began broadcasting on Dec. 21, 2014, but was removed a week later by commercial satellite station Hunan TV for "technical reasons."

这部讲述中国唯一女帝武则天的《武媚娘传奇》于2014年12月21日开播，仅一周之后，就因为“技术原因”被湖南卫视停播。

Many viewers speculated the suspension was a punishment given by the country`s television regulators for the much-discussed revealing costumes of female characters on the show, which stirred online debate in which the female characters were dubbed "squeezed breasts."

很多观众揣测，停播是广电总局的惩罚手段，因为剧中女性人物的服装“过于暴露”，“为沟挤胸”的女性角色还在网上掀起了全民热议。

The show began to air once again on last Thursday, but with edited scenes that show only the character`s heads.

上周四，《武媚娘传奇》得以复播，只是经过剪裁的画面就只剩下演员们的“大头”。

The State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television has not responded to inquiries.

对此，广电总局并未做出任何回应。

Web users complained the edited version only has close-ups of the character`s faces, greatly affecting the composition and plot.

一些小伙伴们在微博上开启了吐槽模式，觉得“剪裁版”就只剩下演员们的脸部特写，严重影响了构图和剧情。

However, some supported the cut.

另一些人则认为“剪得好”。

"I can hardly look at the TV as there are so many breasts..." wrote "Jingjingmi-ko" on microblog Sina Weibo.

“(在剪之前)满屏都是胸，完全无法直视。”一位名叫Jingjingmi-ko的新浪微博博主这样写到。

Wu Zetian, the only recorded empress of China, was concubine of Emperor Taizong in Tang Dynasty. After Emperor Taizong`s death, Wu married his successor Emperor Gaozong.

武则天是中国有史记载以来的唯一一位女皇帝。她曾是唐太宗的妃子，在唐太宗死后，又嫁给了太宗之子唐高宗。

After Emperor Gaozong`s stroke, Wu ruled the country in her own right.

高宗死后，武则天独揽大权，成为一国之君。
