All the releases appear to contain unique extras, but only the R1 BBC release, the R1 Fox re-release (under the title "Wallace and Gromit: Three Amazing Adventures"), the R1 Lionsgate/Alliance release, and the R2 UK SE release from the BBC come with commentary.
Do note, the R1 releases have low-pitched audio except for the 1999 Fox release and the 2001 BBC release which unfortunately is a PAL-NTSC transfer. Also note, the Shout! release(s) presents the short in 1.67:1 widescreen and features the dialogue in the correct pitch, but the music and sound effects still low. -
