I've just watched it on Channel 5 too....fantastic film which I don't think I'd ever watched all the way through before.

The vintage aircraft are just great.

According to IMDB Stuart Whitman is still with us....I liked him in this movie and all the others he was in in those days.

I'm now off to buy the DVD!!!!

Terry-thomas played the Dick dastardly type well.

I saw this movie as a kid when it first came out and thought it was great even then. Great entertainment. I now have it on VHS and DVD.

'Terry-thomas played the Dick dastardly type well.'

You will find that Dick Dastardly is based on the Terry Thomas character as the film came out some years before the cartoon.

Its that man again!!

It`s a nice bit of amusement. Much better, and wittier, than its soulmate The Great Race.
