Do other countries recycle WW2 movies as much as British TV? I can't imagine the Germans wanting to watch "The Bunker" or "Schindler's List" or "The Longest Day"!
It's a wonderful film - the music is my all-time favourite film music.
I always gaze in awe at Mary Ure's hair (probably a wig) and how it seems to remain salon-fresh no matter how much shinning down ropes, jumping into canals, and shooting Nazis who are obviously firing blanks back at her (!) she does.
