Not the bbfc this time, they released the cut version all over Europe on video and disc(the box also includes MAD MAX with it's original Aussie dialogue as well as the yankified version) so the Blu box set is the way to go. If you watch it and see "Wez" pull a crossbow bolt out of his arm it's all good(that's missing in the previous versions, as are numerous head-butts...no really) Mel's finest hour.
I have the single-disc release of the second film from the US and can confirm it's definitely uncut. Was definitely a lot less than four minutes missing out of previous releases - merely seconds actually and the X-rated Warner tape released here in the UK was the full uncut version. Every subsequent UK release and ALL US releases prior to the Blu-ray were the cut R-rated version.
