Nothing on imdb and very little info anywhere else, apart from http://explore.bfi.org.uk/4ce2b6f460066 and http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C4303332 - not even a youtube posting. Featured in full length (26 minutes) on this 2007 compilation DVD "On The Beat - The British Policeman 1900-1984", which in turn was reissued by Atlas Editions a couple of years ago as a free gift for subscribers to their "Best of British Police Cars" partwork mail order series of Vanguards-based 1:43 diecasts.
