Mind you, its been on YT a couple of years so I think EMI's sniffer "Bot" has missed it.

Far and away the best film they did for the music quality. All Shads composed.

Did anyone notice right at the beginning after they jumped off the train, Hank rescuing a Marshall amp from the bushes? It was only a top and was seen a few more times, though a speaker cab was conspicuous by its absence!


When they actually performed, though, it was nowhere to be seen, to be replaced by an AC30 which had miraculously appeared from nowhere.

That's easy. The Marshall broke in the fall and the club they played in supplied the Vox. Seemples. :)

I've never seen this film, for some reason it's never been on TV and it's not on dvd but i wanted to see it as it has more of the Shadows than previous films. It also has one of my favourites 'My Way' which i still think would have been a bigger hit than 'The dreams i dream'. And the picture/sound quality isn't too bad either.

I have it on VHS and I think there are still a few copies knocking around. I picked up mine in a shop. Amazon has one at the moment; eBay hasn't but might be worth a try after a while.

I was aware of this film but I hadn't seen it. As far as I know, it wasn't shown in Finnish cinemas. Perhaps it was thought that the days of Cliff Richard and the Shadows were over and not enough people would go and see it.

The Young Ones and Summer Holiday were shown here but I don't think they were massive hits.
