Griselinia, Any ideas please, cold or disease?

Hello,
I’ve not posted for a while on here but wondered if someone can please help me determine what is going on with my Griselinia Littoralis. I have a small hedge of the standard green type (over 3yrs old) and two variegated plants in another bed (2 years old).
They have recently started to die off with blackened/slimy branches and it appears that I’ve lost two whole plants now (I’ve cut one back to try to save it) , so that’s one of each type and some other plants now look like they’re in the process of dying off/affected.
Many thanks in advance 😊

At first I put it down to the extreme cold weather here in the S-E but now I’m starting to wonder could it be a disease?
They’ve survived snow before, with nothing more than a few black tips on new growth but I’ve not seen anything like this so I’m starting to think something else might be going on with them.
Many thanks in advance 😊
