What about agents and commandos in and out of Norway and perhaps France, attack the small but important traffic between Germany and Norway, all the ship movement of Wesserübung in April-May 1940, chase the Tirpitz and the rest of Kriegsmarine heavy units from 1942 onwards in the Arctic, Murmansk-bound convoy escort, U-boot hunt in Biscay Bay and Norway... and of course loads of patrol zones. Some British subs were transfered to the USSR port of Poliarny, and some other were used as beacons for important operations (HMS Sealion - Dec 41, acted as marker submarine for Operation Anklet, the raid on Lofoten Islands, Norway.).

There is more than meets the eye in a British Atlantic campaign .
