All the information you're after is printed on the sleeve (indeed, I think Indicator is highly unusual if not unique in providing both running times and production years of all extras in this fashion - Arrow and Criterion certainly don't) - and of course running times are instantly available via your player's OSD as soon as you start playing it, so you have that option too.

Over the past dozen years or so, I've worked for a large number of labels with different approaches, and I have to say that my strong personal preference is for the Indicator/Eureka/BFI/Second Run model of keeping things simple and facilitating getting from point A to point B as quickly as possible without too much onscreen text clutter or distracting pop-ups.

Hammer vol 4 will hopefully be out some time next year, but for various reasons it doesn't have a firm release date yet - what's holding it up is an issue outside Powerhouse's control. Which is a shame, because I can't wait to get stuck into it.

If it’s an issue with the rights to the Hammer On The Buses films, hope they get it sorted!

i hope it's not something to do with getting decent elements for Revenge of Frankenstein fed up with sub-standard releases for that one...

That's one of the things I really like about Indicator and Eureka discs, the no F'ing about approach. I hate skipping through trailers and loads of logos before I can make a selection. Once it's loaded, brief logo then into the film or extra.
