WHERE THE BULLETS FLY
1966

“The world's second best secret agent against a devil... called "Angel"!”

For this, the second of the three Charles Vine spy spoofs, Lindsay Shonteff, director of the first Vine picture, was replaced by horror specialist John Gilling.

PLOT
British scientists have developed a new means of aircraft propulsion - a nuclear unit protected by a lightweight metal known as 'Spurium'. A gang of villains, headed by 'Angel' (Michael Ripper), want to steal a sample to sell to the
Russians. But Charles Vine (Tom Adams) is not about to let them...

Joe Baker ... Minister
John Arnatt ... Rockwell

Directed by John Gilling

Running time: 88 minutes

Adams is back as his usual laconic self. However, Michael Pittock's script lacks the subtle (and not so subtle) twists and turns of the original movie.

The Royal Air Force cooperated with the producers allowing several scenes to be filmed at RAF Biggin Hill. Different dialogue appeared in the American print that had much less of the opening sequence.

Highlights include cameos from Sid James as a mortician, Joe Baker as a
Cabinet Minister and Wilfred Brambell as a train station guard enliven
Best among the supporting cast is John Arnatt, reprising his role as Vine's
harassed boss 'Rockwell'. Vine returned one last time in 'Somebody's Stolen Our Russian Spy' in 1968.

Funniest moment - getting into a taxi, Vine says "Waterloo!". The driver looks baffled. "The station?". "Bit late for the battle!", quips the secret agent.
