ah, I do remember the susan george connection watching it on tv but I cannot remember another single thing about the movie "Fright" nor do I recall that title, Im sure you are absolutley right but I suppose that goes to prove my earlier comment that quite often the film within the film is more memorable than the one we are actually watching! cheers for that info

There's a splendid fake film in the middle of The New Lot. This is available as an extra on the DVD of Next of Kin. The lads (Peter Ustinov, John Laurie, Raymond Huntley and Bernard Miles) go to the cinema during their basic army training and watch a very stiff upper lip flagwaver with Robert Donat as an impossibly brave soldier. Rip roaring stuff.

A blood spattered Dennis Waterman dropping through the door? I suppose it must have been the first time he and George Cole worked together.

Funny you should mention it as when they met up to do MINDER they discussed the film, as quoted from REMINDER (Waterman) p.86,

"Early on in the shooting of MINDER, George Cole and I were in a car together and I mentioned FRIGHT.
'I was in that,' said George.
'No you weren't,' said I.
'Yes I was, and I don't remember you.'
GEORGE COLE : I guess he must have been that body lying face down in the hall that I'd been stepping over for the last three weeks."
