Does anyone know if the new Blu-Ray of Dracula Prince of Darkness will be uncut as according to the BBFC it was cut in 1965 in order to receive an X certificate and none of the following video and DVD releases said that the previous cuts were waived

The Optimum DVD is uncut so I'd fully expect this one to be too.

According to the IMDb:

The UK cinema version was cut by the BBFC with edits to blood flows during the resurrection scene, a closeup shot of Helen's staking, and a shortening of the seduction scene where Dracula pulls a hypnotized Diana towards his chest wound. Video releases featured the cut cinema print though all widescreen DVD releases feature the fully uncut version.
