Wissenswertes

Quincy's Quest is a 1979 British family film directed by Robert Reed, and starring Tommy Steele, Mel Martin and Charles Morgan. It was written by Steele. A version was first shown on television on 23 December 1962 as The Tommy Steele Show: Quincy's Quest.

Production

The film was shot at Shepperton Design Studios. The studio built Archimedes, a ten-foot suit with an unidentified actor inside.

Although it was without fault, the block bridge proved controversial. Designer and Shepperton founder Andrew Ainsworth wanted the bridge to connect like real blocks, using reaction injection molding. However, because the cast would dance on top of it, he reinforced it with a welded steel structure, which caused a fire due to the fuel energy contained within the bricks. It was quickly extinguished.
