I just checked the CH DVD, and it does have a TRT of 30:37. That
said, one of the first times TV Land was allowed to run The Informer,
they did show some of the cut scenes, but obviously not all, as that
would exceed their 30 min. time slot, not counting commercials.
Subsequent runs on TVL cut out quite a bit more, as I don't recall
seeing any extended tunnel scenes after that first time.
