220px-gunsofnavaroneAn interesting and fun observation by Jamie McCullum. Dig out your old copies of the movie and see for yourself?

Dear Tom,

Something just caught my attention which may interest the readers of your PLF site (I’ll let you be the judge!)

I was watching the Guns of Navarone this afternoon and in the scene when the heroes are captured in the village of Mandrakos (Ed: somewhere around 1 hr 50 mins?), the German officer flicks through a book of wanted andartes.
Remarkably the first photo is of Manolis Paterakis!

With best regards and thanks again for your continued brilliant work on the PLF site. I love it.

With best wishes,
Jamie

    Remarkable spotting by Jamie, but I found it at around 1.08 in as they are interviewed having been arrested in Marakas (?) Not sure how you post a photo here Tom but I have a screen shot if you can advise. I shall advise his nephew as his, Manoli’s sister Filia is, as far as I am aware, still living in UK.
