          Yup, I reckon I could practically find my way round Schloss Adler blindfolded.

          The curious thing is when I was contracting in Germany about five years ago those WW2 films were on all the time, and the Germans seem to love them.

          (I used that call sign to test my new phone when they were installing Skype at a client site a couple of years ago, and the other young pups seemed totally mystified and must have thought I was a right nutter. )

            Burton's finest performance.

            And Derren Nesbit is particulary creepy in it.

              No matter how many times I watch that film (must be a good dozen viewings by now) I'm always surprised when Colonel Turner is revealed as the villain.

                ... not as surprising as Clint's distinctly anachronistic hair style!

                  Never mind that, are Ingrid Pitt's tits anachronistic or in keeping with the fashions of the time?
