Correct on the film, but it was the TV series, thats why I removed it. Why do they not make a really good remake of The Day of the Triffids?

Come on the last one should be easy, at no it not Norman Wisdom. Far from it, but in hindsight it did turn into a bit of a farce at the end. BUt I'm sure it was not supposed to be. The remake was far from it! HuhHuhHuh?

What was the film?

Not sure of the film, but that ain't an army vehicle, so could be Home Guard etc.

The van appears to be a Thames Trader.

It was a 60's film as in the background that appears to be a Sunbeam Rapier.

Not sure whos van/truck it is, do some more homework later. But it almost looks like GPO (due to ladders on the roof and the great drab colour scheme)

The film was done in the early 60's

Come on I'm giving to much away!  Lips Sealed

Oh yea, its not set in the war. So why the army?

What they are doing, strange as it is, may give a hint!

Sunbeam Rapier? Same engine as the Commer, though usually the 1600 version if it's the early sixties, before the 1725 was introduced across the Rootes range. Only one film I can remember with a Rapier is Village of the Damned.

Great film, it's a shame the wall collapsed on the Rapier!

Well done got it right - film that is,  still waiting for the van/truck

The Film was Village of the Damned, written by  John Wyndham - (The Midwich Cuckoos). Which was just on Radio 7 as a play. Very scary as a play and very creepy as a film

What the soldiers were doing was, as they had lost all contact with the village and every thing just seemed to stop. They sent a solider on a rope, so when he dropped they could pull him back. 

And as an extra bonus, John Wyndham also wrote The day of the Triffids (see the film a bit below)

So we just need the vehicle.


Let me know if you need a hint!

Commer? It has to be surely, with a coach-built body by Plaxton. They were quite small, if it's the one based on a BF cassis.

No - wrong (according to my old Observer book of Commercial Vehicles)

Do you want a hint?

Think of major manufacture and water??


Oh yea, the coach in the ditch was a Karrier
