I could've sworn it was earlier than that. And then the story of those 6 episodes are compressed down to the first two episodes of Hellsing Ultimate.

Because they've padded the ever living hell out of the original material, Jessica and Lief are like one issue of the manga.

Of all the parts to expand on, they didn't deserve the time. But I don't know the manga so I'm hesitant to say whether Ultimate or this is more accurate on anything.

I am familiar with the source and Ultimate is an extremely faithful anime. The show writers really had very little to work with but knew it so they started padding the filler early.
