Recognizing a couple of faces here :wink:

‘The Siege of Sidney Street’ (1960)

Correct, Aldo. Well done. :+1:

The faces you will probably recognise are Donald Sinden, Kieron Moore, JP McKenna, and Peter (‘Jason King’) Wyngarde, minus his famous sideburns and moustache…

Note: In the credits for the film, a certain Alan Simpson plays a Police Inspector.
This is the same Alan Simpson, who went on a few years later, along with Ray Galton, to write episodes for Tony Hancock, as well as the classic ‘Steptoe and Son’ TV series.

Over to you, amigo… :wink:

Very interesting stuff! … I spotted Donald Sinden and Tutte Lemkow, but not Jason King without his usual ‘facial furniture’ :wink:

Ok … thank you, Toscano

Back to the SWs

Interesting post, @Toscano. The first siege in Britain to be captured on camera. One of the conspirators (Jacob Peters) later co-founded the Cheka (the Bolshevik secret police). They never did find out the identity of ‘Peter the Painter’, and all was conveniently swept under the carpet in the embarrassing aftermath.

More clues: This film has two American actors who both spent several years making movies in Europe.


Perhaps La più grande rapina del west (1967) ? (if I recognized 2 actors correctly)

That’s correct - the two American actors, Walter Barnes and Jack Betts aka ‘Hunt Powers’

That’s you up next, runner … well done,

Thanks, runner.

This was an old childhood favourite … let’s see who can identify it.



I think this is another movie with Walter Barnes in the cast :thinking:
Is it Captain Sindbad?
