Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsWhen Johnny is photographing the papers that Professor Dohlmann has given him, he takes the normal bulb out of his Anglepoise desk lamp and puts in a brighter bulb. When he turns on the light, the new pattern of light does not match that from the lamp; instead it appears that a light in the ceiling, with a broader beam, has been turned on. When Johnny then moves the Anglepoise closer to the papers, the light does not change as it should do if the light were coming from that lamp.

Featured review
A Present from Berlin
Another nostalgic visit to a fifties London filled with big cars and empty streets. This potboiler about the usual attempts by nasty foreigners to get their clammy mitts on a formula crucial to winning the Cold War as usual has excellent photography by co.producer Monty Berman competing with an obtrusive score by Stanley Black.
About as humble as anything in which Honor Blackman and Arthur Lowe found themselves treading water before eventually becoming household names in the sixties; Miss Blackman here actually suffers the indignity of being billed third after wide boy Michael Balfour sporting an incredible Teddy Boy wig and a taste for loud clothes.
