Yes Michael both Pictureville and Cubby Broccoli Cinema's have EX we just never got the plaque (not sure if Dolby supplied one)

Battle Of Algiers was on seven reels. It's a BFI print .
It was probably originally on more smaller reels and has been assembled onto seven hence the proliferation of changeover dots.

You can say hello if you see me about, I don't bite. Often.

One note about SDDS-8, the logos on end credits for films (as well as print ads in newspapers) typically do not use the special SDDS-8 logo. I have only seen it used on rare occaisions in the last couple years.

Was it that really knackered BFI print with a 1-85 hard matte? When I saw it at Exeter 4-5 years ago someone had joined a section back to front, with the result that an Algerian terrorist appears to be guillotined in reverse (i.e. the blade travels upwards). That cheered up a really depressing film no end.

From watching it it seemed to be 1.85:1 hard matted. There were black bars creaping into the top and bottom of the image occasionaly. So the printed image must have been moving up and down.
