Great news. My Sony Playstation 3 won't be able to play the UK Blu-ray, but I do have an all-region deck that will play the DVD version, at least. I do hope that Warner will release a US Blu-ray of this restored version.

I've just checked for you and the disc is indeed locked. Most Lionsgate titles are, but the odd few aren't so I thought I'd give it a go on the off-chance it helped anyone out.

At least I'll be able to watch the PAL DVD version. At present, I have no way to watch a British Blu-ray.

For those with a modern, HD capable computer with a Blu-ray drive (doesn't have to be a burner, just a reader, so long as you have the HDD space) there are ways to view your purchased Blu-ray discs from any Region - A, B or C, whichever you choose at any time, whenever you like, indefinitely, whether or not your drive is already set to your home region. UK law is, I believe, now in line with US Federal law in this regard (i.e. single back-ups of Blu-ray discs, or DVDs, music CDs... that you own allowed for personal enjoyment only). Essential for US Hammer fans (oh how the pendulum has swung), and British-based Criterion buffs.
