Austin Sevens in Films

[David Stepney]

Having nothing better to do the other night, I amused myself by watching all six episodes of BBC's 1957 scifi drama Quatermass II. In the third episode, I was intrigued to note that an Austin Seven cowled rad Open Road Tourer makes an appearance, firstly parked by a beach and later being towed into a secret government establishment, the owner and his family having come to a sticky end.
