Rita, Sue and Andrea too

What a tough life she had! And yet had the talent and creative spark to write such a great screenplay.

I was surprised however how little she earned from it. Somebody else must have made a killing.

I know all the lads on the motorbikes in the film

They was all hanging out at hartshead moor services on the bikes one night when the director and film crew happened to drop in

They had a chat and offered them about a grand to hang around the film set for a few weeks to perform on the bikes when needed

Non of them have acted in there lives and it was a case of right place at right time

I actually ended up owning the the yellow Yamaha rd a few years later lol
