Interesting facts

  • Filmed in: Pinewood Studios

Some Girls Do is a 1969 British comedy spy film directed by Ralph Thomas. It was the second of the revamped Bulldog Drummond films starring Richard Johnson as Drummond, made following the success of the James Bond films of the 1960s. Some Girls Do even featured a white Aston Martin DB6 Volante, manufactured by the same marque used by Bond.

Production

Filming began May 1968 and took place mainly in Spain. One of the British filming locations was the National Gas Turbine Establishment at Farnborough. It was known as "Pyestock". The locale doubled for the British Atomic plant where the engines and wind tunnel models of the fictional SST1 were being tested. Wycombe Air Park was also used as a location in the film for the glider sequence.

Joanna Lumley, Maria Aitken, Yutte Stensgaard and Virginia North appear as some of Petersen's female robots in the film, Lumley and Aitken going uncredited. North and Lumley were also working on the set of On Her Majesty's Secret Service at the same time, as both films were produced at Pinewood Studios.
