This afternoon, I caught "The Great St Trinians Train Robbery" from 1965 on ITV. What a brilliant 'feel good' film, full of all the best of British actors, including Frankie Howerd, Reg Varney, Dora Bryan, Arthur Mullard, and of course, George Cole, who later went on to become Arthur Daley in "Minder", and the inspiration for my nic.
Ah ! Reflections of gentler times ... :-)
Weren't companies like British Lion good at this sort of thing ?
