Find My Past has those too.

Marriages will not be available, as the General Register Office has changed its policy on selling data.

didn't i read somewhere the 'format' changed after 2005 so some sites are finding it difficult to put the 206 ( and onwards) on line

Apparently free? online access is being planned by the GRO.
MAGPIE: Multi Access to GRO Published Index of Events
As a result of the data capture of records being delivered by the DoVE project, a central electronic index of births, deaths and marriages is being created. This will give GRO the facility to provide online public access to a searchable index of registration events, the aim being then to link this with a new integrated online ordering service. The MAGPIE project started early in 2007 and is currently at the high level design stage.
