ITV hacking away at Back To The Future this afternoon

The documentary on the dvd includes a clip of the ending with the caption.

At no time does the producer/director mention it was added just for VHS .

When the VHS came out there was still no sequel planned so why would they add it?
 
The information can easily be found online, and I think Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale talk about it during a Q&A on the DVD. As I recall, there isn't exactly a running commentary on the DVD, but the commentary track is a Q&A.

The caption wasn't part of the original release but was on the VHS. It wasn't on the DVD because they chose to go with the original theatrical ending.
