The video description says the HBO airing started with an EMI logo instead of a Universal logo. EMI was the film's distributor in the UK, So could the sound mix from the HBO airing possibly have also been used for the UK theatrical release?
I know HBO sometimes received, and sometimes even commissioned, alternate transfers. (For example: They were unhappy with the pan-and-scan in the official transfer of Supergirl, so they paid for TriStar to make a new transfer for them.)
And actually, if the HBO print came from EMI, perhaps this track could be on the original, pre-cert UK video release from Thorn-EMI? Just a thought...
(I'm thinking back to the original UK VHS of The Muppet Movie, which not only had extra scenes, but also an entirely different sound mix, one which seems to my hear to have superior clarity and fidelity to the standard mix!)
