    Excellent, but gritty production. Interesting to see that British commercial telly had it's first ads at a natural break at 23 min, if that were Australian commercial TV, the first ad break would be at 7 min, then every 6 mins, thus destroying all of the flow, tension and drama for the sake of selling future landfill.

      If that were ITV today - not that I've watched UK TV since 2009 - it would probably have the same ad breaks. Certainly when I last watched the first ad break in an hour long programme would come before a quarter of an hour had passed.

    Excellent film. I should add that there was a sort of sequel book called 'Field of Blood' also about Northern Ireland. The only character who returns is Inspector Rennie, now played by Timothy Dalton. A film was made of 'Field of Blood' but re-titled 'The IRA Informant.' It is available on DVD.

      He was pretending to be merchant seaman, they had this type too. In a way it was a good ploy. Any of the IRA know it was a British issue suit case and anyone using one couldn't be a British agent, as they knew the score, and would know a agent wouldnt use one.Where as a supposedly returning seaman wouldn't bat an eyelid.

      I visited with my mum and stepdad in 1984, it was grim as hell there. All I really remember about the city was a giant wall dozens of feet high, and my stepdad said it was a police station (no idea if that was true).
      Another thing I recall is that my mum had been nagging my stepdad to get our living room ceiling artexed. He was a builder, and told her that he wasn't going to artex it because it will crack eventually. Anyway, we get to our bed and breakfast in Belfast, and the ceiling is artexed, with absolutely gigantic cracks all across it. My mum says 'I see what you mean about artex cracking, I guess we won't bother'. My stepdad nodded sagely, but didn't tell her until much later that those particular cracks were from the building next door getting blown up some time previously.
      Also, when we travelled across the border into Republic of Ireland, it was night-time out in the country. We got to the checkpoint, and there was a sign saying something like 'when light is red, turn off headlights and engine. When green, approach slowly'. The light was red, so my stepdad turned off the lights and engine, and we sat there waiting. Eventually the light turned green, so he started the car up, turned the lights on, and started advancing slowly. The checkpoint was about 100m away, and by the time we crawled there, the whole place went mental. We could see a soldier manning a machine gun atop this makeshift post, pointing it right at us, and 2 soldiers ran right up to the car windows with their rifles levelled at us, screaming to put our hands up, and another soldier manning a spotlight was pointing it right at us.
      One soldier is screaming at my stepdad, demanding to know why he put the headlights on, and he told them that's what he normally does and the sign didn't say anything about not putting the lights back on. Anyway, the soldiers realised we were not a threat and chilled out. We sat there for a while chatting to them, and 2 of them were from my home city. One of them peered into the back of the car where I was sitting and asked 'are you alright son'?, and I replied 'I think I lost my b-b-b-ottle', I was terrified lol.
      They also explained that the evening before a French tourist had done the exact same thing but had not stopped, and his brand new Renault got lit up. Thankfully he wasn't injured.
      It's mental to think that ppl lived with this every day not so long ago.

    Watched this on tour in L/Derry Waterside when it was broadcast, and didn't realise how bad it is. At 38:26 he's carrying an army suitcase and then gets into a Black Taxi. Incredibly stupid error by the programme makers, and the first thing the boys and girls mentioned next day. And at 38:57, we weren't that unprofessional at checkpoints. Not a bad TV effort, close but no cigar.
