Indeed - I just hope they get around to releasing them, as they seem very slow where releasing BDs are concerned.

Speaking of which, Night of the Big Heat is up for pre-order at Amazon for a June release.

Coming from Network in September:

British distributors Network have announced that they will release on Blu-ray directors Joy Batchelor and John Halas' Animal Farm (1954). The preliminary release date set by the distributors is September 22.

The first feature-length British animated film to be given a theatrical release, this landmark 1954 adaptation brilliantly conveys all the horror and humour of George Orwell's scathing satire on the corruption of Communist ideals and the Soviet Union's slide into totalitarianism. Animal Farm remains an outstanding achievement for award-winning animators John Halas and Joy Batchelor; actor and singer Gordon Heath narrates, and the characters are voiced by Maurice Denham. To celebrate its 60th anniversary, It is featured here in a new High Definition transfer made from original film elements, in its as-exhibited theatrical aspect ratio.

Inspired by the dream of Old Major, a prize boar, the overworked animals of Manor Farm rise up against their negligent, drunken human owner and drive him out. Led by two young pigs, Snowball and Napoleon, they establish their own self-sufficient farm, but as the farm flourishes it begins to slide into dictatorship…

Special Features: TBA.

Knew you would say Scotland. Only thing I know about this is her tripping up while filming and having it splashed all over the newspapers.
