This is the forum for Movie and Film discussions. Again, our topic is naval warfare in WWII for the most part.

<HTML>Still thinking this one over.
Soundtrack, don't know, but don't they mention a Deanna Durban song in the book somewhere? That would be a starting point. And as an 'hommage' to Das Boot, how about 'J'attendrai', and maybe Lili Marlene in the German. And in English as well maybe, why not. Makes quite a good point about the similarity of young men under the uniform.
Briers, yes, duffle and senior service, the image gets clearer. Pity he's a bit too mature, as he has just the right quality of understated decency and affability for Valery. Martin Jarvis has it too, but he doesn't exactly look tubercular
I've left a message with the daughter of Penny Wilton who I know, who was in a sit com with him years ago. Long shot but maybe she would put me in touch if they get on still, or at least pass on the enquiry.
Let you know if I hear anything
Keep digging
