How to get full text inside lxml element

Question

I have the following html:

<span class="episode">Episode: <a href="/title/tt2071912/">
    !Que ve el Bisbe!</a>
    (2011)
</span>

How would I get the year from this? When I get the episode object, it only gives me the 'text' before the <a> :

result.cssselect('.episode')[0].text
'Episode: '

The best I have so far is:

year = lxml.html.tostring(result.cssselect('.episode')[0]).split('(')[-1].split(')')[0]

使用封闭元素的.text属性 。
