Trivia
The marquee of the theater in which Tarrant and his wife have their appointment advertises Battle of Britain, which also starred Michael Caine. See more »Goofs
Revealing mistakes: At the start of the film where the van is blown up on the motorway, it becomes clear that the scene is filmed on an incomplete stretch of motorway (possibly the M3, which was completed in 1974) as lane markings are missing from one carriageway. See more »Crazy Credits
The opening credits are formed from images of children's alphabet blocks. See more »
