Missing Scene?


I ran this film as the Saturday matinee at the cinema where I worked as a projectionist over forty years ago and I'm sure there was a scene in it where Will Hay and his two companions are sitting on the beach surrounded by cannibals and the radio is playing the shipping forecast, Cromarty; Forth; Fisher; Dogger; German Bite and all that. The cannibal chief asks him what does voice in the box say and Will Hay translates the shipping forecast to them as meaning something entirely different, but funny. When I recently bought the Region 2 DVD release, I found that this scene was missing...although there was a different scene in the chief's hut where the radio was playing the football results. Is this another case of one of Hay's films making it to DVD with a scene or two missing?
