‘Cumbernauld Hit’ is maybe the best 1970s action thriller funded by a Scottish New Town Corporation that I’ve seen

I think you pointed me to that at some point. It was bananas. Very entertaining but totally mental with it :joy:

Really good piece about London’s wealthy extending their houses underground.
