The proper version. The Mini's are in the right order, Red, White and Blue, in the follow-up version they are in the wrong order.

cracking film

Did you see the think on Sky Arts? discovering Michael Caine ?
I thought very good, also saw the one on Julie Andrews

The only version as far as I am concerned, haven't even seen the modern remake of it - I mean where would you get a Bedford VAL from nowadays?

I've always been disappointed they didn't make a follow up to resolve the cliff hanger. Maybe nobody could write anything that stood up to the original.

One of my Christmas presents off the family is a photo of Micheal Caine and Noel Coward in the toilet scene when ‘Charlie’ breaks back in with plans of the job, it’s also signed by Micheal Caine and Noel Coward.
Got it on the planner and countless DVD’s including the anniversary one but will still be watching it.

That was good, again. I had forgotten about the Globemaster and it was nice to see a Caravelle again.
