A relationship between twins is strained after they befriend a predatory hustler and his girlfriend
There are three scenes that feature railways in this London-based crime thriller based on the 1964 novel Ask Agamemnon by Jenni Hall. In the opening scenes, a Pan-Am branded coach heads towards London and a Piccadilly Line service formed of 1959-built tube stock passes over the M4 motorway, having just departed from Boston Manor station. In a later scene filmed in Shepherd’s Bush Market, a train of London Transport CO stock passes by on the viaduct behind forming a Metropolitan Line service. Finally, there is a very brief shot filmed by the Thames at Bankside, and London Cannon Street station can be seen in the background along with Cannon Street Railway Bridge.
