The Mars bar and plastic carrier bag played its part.

one little flaw in the movie, there was no snow as the clips show us but it was a hot day in july when the exfoltration was taking place.

Re-reading Ben Macintyre's biography of Gordievsky - the order here is wrong... He found the third bolt was locked on his front door BEFORE his drink was spiked and, as pointed out below, it's cold and snowy in Russia but not in July when he was exfiltrated...

Spot on. It's also in that order in Olegs memoir 'next stop execution'
