Network had announced a whole volume of Russell's South Bank Show episodes years ago, but it got quietly cancelled before release.
ITV does own Clouds of Glory, and while there are some unsourced claims out there that there are music rights issues preventing release they don't seem to be preventing theatrical screenings so I suspect it's down to a lack of desire to release it on ITV / Network's part.
Does anyone have access to the new streaming service BritBox? I'm curious as to whether the BBC or ITV have uploaded any unaccounted for Russell films.
