There’s a lot of unreleased stuff from that era that is crying out for the Blu Ray treatment ( although I acknowledge this is much easier said than done! ).
Aside from mentioning that Alvin Rakoff's Hoffman (1970) and Gerry O'Hara's The Brute (1977) are on their way (both have been officially teased), I can't go into specific detail right now, but I hope you won't be disappointed by what's coming up over the next few months.

As you suggest, there's a bigger challenge with stuff like this than there is with major studio releases, because HD masters don't normally exist off the shelf and have to be created from scratch (with all the expense and logistical challenges that that implies) - and of course lockdown hasn't made things easy either, as gaining physical access to vault materials has been far trickier than it used to be. But we have several 1970s British titles in active development.
