On C5 now, how dated does it look now. It's only 15 years old, looks like it was made in the 80's.

I've always referred to it as The Sick Elephant

Pre-matrix wasn't it?

I think it only looks dated due to all the colour in it. Good film though!

Aye, matrix was made only 2 years later.

I think you're right about it only being dated because of the all the bright colours.

There's an old mathematician at Warwick who looks like a castaway (dishevelled big hair, walks around barefoot); turns out he's actually registered with one of those talent agencies who specialise in 'unorthodox' casting and he's in this film, among numerous others.

If you remember an old Carling advert where they're buying beer for groats and an old man flashes a stallholder, that's him.
