There is no difference between the European *TV* series and the
US *TV* series.  The only difference there is, is between the *TV* first
season pilot (episode 1000, doesn't matter whether US or European) and
the European *movie* called "Twin Peaks".  This *movie* has just been
released in the US on videocassette and laser.

Yes, it's full of spoilers because the TV series is the same
everywhere in the world.  I am not sure what you mean by "difference
in the last episode."  There is no difference anywhere, except that some
countries (New Zealand I think) decided to cancel Twin Peaks second
season earlier, but whatever was shown was the same.
