I saw this episode uncensored when I was about that age. I thought the gruesome ending was awesome.Without censors cutting Remmick's head and chest gore, I would not have continued watching after my very first Trek episode. Thanks to them, I became a fan when I was ~8 and kept watching every day and every week.
The Brits were quite hardcore about censorship, especially during the 80's. This was the "Video Nasty" era:

Space channel (now CTV Sci-Fi) in Canada got in trouble because DSC season 1 aired before the watershed hour.I recall Discovery season 1 being rated 18 in the UK on Netflix first run, for a few corpses in the dark, an alien beheading, some dubcon that turned out to be sci-fi mind magic and a glimpse of Klingon nipnop.
Oh, and Tilly saying "fucking cool"
Some seemed legit, but I saw one person literally reported the show to Standards for not following 'Gene's vision' lmao. No real specifics, just that.
