The short answer is yes! More instruments + all the other gadgets to make it a really professional orchestra. Here's the difference from the Spitfire website:-

 

Created as a universal starting point for composers and music creators of every level, BBC Symphony Orchestra now comes in three editions: Discover, Core and Professional. Professional is the definitive, comprehensive collection for writing professional, world-class orchestral music, featuring 55 different instruments recorded on world-class Millennia preamps, including groups and soloists, and 418 techniques, including 33 legatos, for each melodic instrument â as well as a staggering 20 signals.

Additionally, BBSO is recorded at Maida Vale Studios where the BBC Symphony Orchestra has historically performed. While you can adjust mic mixes of course, the room where Spitfire Symphony Orchestra is recorded is the large, Air Studios Lyndhurst. It is associated with John Williams and LSO and a long lush reverb tail. Different rooms, different character. Both desirable.

I'm guessing you're wanting to get BBCSO during the sale. If you weren't, I'd suggest you fill out that survey on Spitfire's site and get the Discover version for free in two weeks.
