Ah...but did you also see this on the same link you provided (a couple
paragraphs down) indicating that there are *two* versions and that the
soundtrack was re-recorded with a new narration?:
"There were rumours that it was to be screened on Channel 4 in the UK, or on
MTV Europe, at some point that winter, but it wasn't screened until after
the retiral, on the shortest day 1992, on MTV Europe, with a rerecorded
soundtrack and new narration....."
