Did you know
- TriviaBill Nighy once said of playing his MI5 spy character, "I'd play Johnny Worricker for the rest of my life! I'd be perfectly happy as long as they keep me in a good suit."
- GoofsIn one scene we witness a lock being manipulated by a pick set, ostensibly to gain entry to a property. However, the pick and lever are only momentarily wiggled around in the lock before the door gives way. Many productions make the same mistake, the pick only bypasses the pins in the lock, however the cylinder still needs to be rotated as it would be with a key in order to actuate the lock.
- Quotes
