Not a Girls' school


The school that the girls are seen leaving in one scene is actually a boys' school in Weybridge, Surrey: viz. St. George's College.

Great early-Sixties location work in London. Brilliant editing during the Picadilly to Leicester Sq sequence. Evocative posters and adverts. Abd those performances!

Yes, I loved the location scenes. Check out all the people smoking on the tube! People dressed far better in those days as well. Nowadays most people in London look like they put on their clothes in the dark after stealing them from a black bag left outside a charity shop.

I happened to notice a very attractive, young Indian woman in a sari on the tube (when Billy escapes with the ransom money) talking in a very animated way to an interested, older Welsh or Irishman. The guy looked like a miner or barkeep. I know it was the Swinging '60's, but would such an interchange be common on the streets (or under the streets) of London in 1964? I'd like to think that was the case as opposed to two extras being told how to act.
