This film contains a solid group of male British based acting talent. Stanley Baker,Sean Connery, Sid James (superb straight actor), Herbert Lom, Gordon Jackson, Alfie Bass etc, under the firm's No. 1 Hell Driver - Patrick McGoohan. Back at the shop under his mother's thumb we have David McCallum on crutches and in the office, William Hartnell plays the classic 'rip off' boss we've all come to love. Flirtatious Peggy Cummins gets down to seductive business. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051713/ Below is the set of the Pull Inn Cafe. |
