Hello Gary
Well your message certainly has an Australian flavour.
Leo McKern was born in Sydney in 1920 and died in the UK in 2002. An intere=
sting snippet about McKern was that he was frightened of flying so used to =
do his international travelling by cargo ship.
A bit of a mix-up with =E2=80=98On the Beach=E2=80=99 as the car was a BN4 =
and still exists in our state of Victoria plus the scenes of the film were =
set in an around Melbourne and not Sydney.

Cool, Rick. I figured someone would have information. We did record the mov=
ie, but haven't watched it yet. Leo McKern is one of my favorites... "Ah, I=
'm being called by She Who Must be Obeyed."
I did see the same thing with them clipping a wider mirror into the origina=
l holder to do the "two-shot." But the wider mirror would actually be a nic=
e accessory. Wonder if anyone ever made them?
And my favorite Healey siting scene is still one of the closing scenes of O=
n the Beach, where she stands next to her BN6, watching the submarine come =
out under the Sydney bridge. Good eyes can spot the stock factory blanking =
plate in the cockpit filling the space where the heater controls would have=
gone, since the car had been produced for warmer climes without a heater.
Cheers
Gary

Hi Gary,
Thanks for posting this. I've become a "collector" of films that have Heal=
eys in them and have well over a hundred of them, but this wasn't one. In =
watching the movie, I was wondering why it had such an oversized rear view =
mirror until I saw they used it to reflect both the driver and passenger in=
the car in the same shot. As a Mercedes guy, I'm surprised you didn't men=
tion the Gullwing Mercedes in the final scene, driven by Leo McKern, later =
famed for "Rumpole of the Bailey" The whole movie is available here: http=

Healthy Healeying,
Rick Neville
