28 Days Later -Radically Different Ending? .::SPOILERS::.

Does anyone know if the Region 1 DVD contains the "radically different ending"? I know it is on the Region 2 DVD.
Spoiler:
It is where instead of being found by the army the main characters go to the laboratory from the beginning and finding a cure for Frank which makes Jim become infected. This ending started from the scene where Frank becomes infected and was cut because the cure was seen as unlikely.

The Region 1 DVD contains this ending in storyboard format, with the director and producer (?) supplying the voiceovers.

And even though it says spoiler in your thread title, perhaps you could "spoilerize' the text.

Yeah they have it in storyboard format with voiceover, since a drop of blood could infect a person there was no conceivable way of "that cure" ever working. Pretty neat to see though!

I don't think this scene was actually cut, I don't think it was ever filmed in the first place. That's why there's only a storyboard for it.

The region 2 edition also contains the alternate ending as storyboards with optional commentary. You can check it from the www.dvdcompare.org.uk site where you can find the full specs and comparisons. that site is handy.

Considering the deleted scenes, I wonder at what point they decided to change from
Spoiler:
hordes of infected attacking the mansion to just Jim attacking.
