There are multiple versions of the We Are The Champions video, see http://www.queenpedia.com/index.php?title=We_Are_The_Champions_-_Promotional_Video

Regular Version
Extra Guitar Version
BBC/TOTP Version

Does anybody know if there's a better version around of the so-called 'extra guitar version'?
I found this video on YouTube, but it's quite bad quality:

Actually, the BBC/TOTP version is in fact a hybrid of the 'regular version' and 'extra guitar version' soundwise.
- 'regular version' is the version we all know from the records: http://youtu.be/04854XqcfCY
- 'extra guitar version' adds some new solo guitar licks in the last two chorusses, but also loses some solo guitar licks there: http://youtu.be/gzqlfgeoSdo
(most notably for most is probably the guitar lick on the very last chords of the song, which is missing)
- 'BBC/TOTP version' adds some new solo guitar licks in the last two chorusses, but also keeps the ones from the regular version: http://youtu.be/z7Nvj9UOWlg
A version with audience noise is available also: http://youtu.be/XhF7Iysj7KI

(Anybody know where I can find the 'extra guitar version' BTW??
Only the audio is fine too, since the video itself is the same as the normal version. I can edit the sound to the already existing video if neccessary
p.s. I already own the 'extra guitar version' on a recorded VHS, but it misses the beginning and ending, and since I am digitalizing some of my stuff I was hoping that a complete version is around somewhere)

Are any of these also the version that is on the Days of Our Lives Blu Ray, where Brian is seen playing over the backing track in the studio, or is that a separate version?

No. Indeed you are correct, that is another totally different version.
