According to https://www.thedigitalfix.com/televisio ... endas-fen/ the booklet should be mentioned in the Blu-Ray comparison (http://dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=37374 ) , and the booklet has twelve pages (edit: sixteen).
Also the verdict on the Blu-Ray comparison page says "The standalone edition includes an exclusive featurette while the boxset includes additional films and extras.". I think this is incorrect. The boxset contains a multi-part documentary "Alan Clarke: Out of His Own Light". The featurette on the standalone edition is an edit of part 4 of this documentary (i.e. containing the content relevant to Penda's Fen), so it's not exclusive.

I own the U.K. single-disc Blu-ray release and can verify that the booklet is actually 16 pages: 12 numbered pages and 4 unnumbered pages.

Thanks for confirning! Yes, BFI do have a strange way of numbering the pages in their booklets.

Re: Penda’s Fen (1974) R2 UK
I always use the numbers listed in the BFI booklet rather than counting the unlisted pages, but I've put 16 here.
