A young man visits his penfriend in Holland only to become involved with a gang of diamond thieves
This Children’s Film Foundation family crime drama is set entirely in Holland, and was filmed under the working title of Lend Me Your Clogs. There are excellent shots of trams in Amsterdam yet despite the film’s international setting there are a few opening English scenes. These include a shot of passengers disembarking from a boat train at Harwich Parkeston Quay station with BR Mark 1 coaching stock in the platform.
