Are you sure, seems to me most of the dialogue is the front right channel,
with the front left about 20 dB down, whatever, it's wrong (I note the ad
breaks are in perfect 2 Ch stereo)

No, not IME.

Sorry typo.
Dialogue is on Right, no dialogue on left.
Relative confirms SKY transmission is the same problem.

Why are they bothering with such an old film with not exactly state of the
art sound in the first place?

Considering when it was made (1939) it is stunningly good. It's also one
of the "classic" movies that has been digitally restored to remove dirt,
scratches and mis-registration of the three B&W technicolor strips, etc

The orginal sound was mono so I can't think why there should be anything
in any channels other than L & R. For Ch4 to have a massive L/R offset is
just plain wrong.
