    • Trivia
      Donald Houston's attempt at a Cornish accent is poor- should have stuck to native Welsh. His mother's accent flits between West Country, Irish and Chelsea vicariously. Saturday morning viewing really. They should have made more use of William Hartnell's character to give it some gravitas.

    Robert Shaw

    As well as his part in the film he gets a credit as.dialect adviser. Lucky he didn't make it his vocation.
