Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe film's title, "Cleanskin," can have two different meanings. It can either refer to an undercover operative unknown to his intended targets, or it can refer to an extremist who is unknown to the security services, as he or she has had no previous convictions.
- GoofsWhen Ewan cuts the detonator wire with the knife, he cuts both wires at once. This would short the wires through the blade and set the bomb off.
If that had been the detonator wire, this would be correct. What he cut was the wrist lanyard that was preventing the detonator from being dropped.

Featured review
A great performance from not only Sean but also the girl (Tuppence?), and it was nice to see Peter Polycarpou back on our screen!
cleanskin will appeal to a wide audience, not just those who are still recovering from 7/7 (which i couldn't stop thinking about whilst watching) and it's helpful seeing the side from the "good guy" and the side from the "bad guy".
having lived in London when i was younger, it was nice to see some of the landmarks i visited as a kid, so it seems they really went out of their way to keep the realism in the film. it could have easily been filmed in a film studio but it wasn't, which makes it home more for me.
Still the scenes linger in the memory after i watched them.
