Slip-Up

This film's transmission was delayed by the BBC several times because of threat of lawsuits by the various parties who were being portrayed in this film.

It was shown some time after production and although edits were made including the title being changed from Slip Up, lawsuits still took place.

Jack Slipper successfully sued because he was shown to be incompetent and his character was seen wearing a shower cap!

This film is unlikely to be shown again until the BBC triple check that all the real life characters are well and truly dead.

The film is about the hunt for the great train robbers, especially Ronnie Biggs. Larry Lamb might not the the strongest actors about but Jeremy Kemp is commanding as Slipper of the Yard with or without the shower cap.
