The film is loosely based on the actions of the British Army's Special Air Service (SAS) in the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege; however, the plot makes considerable fictionalised departures from the actual siege and its background, and instead follows SAS Captain Peter Skellen as he infiltrates a terrorist group planning an attack on American diplomats. The film's title references the motto of the SAS. ## Credits - **Director:** [Ian Sharp](https://cinepixo.com/people/ian-sharp) - **Screenplay:** [Reginald Rose](https://cinepixo.com/people/reginald-rose) - **Original Music Composer:** [Roy Budd](https://cinepixo.com/people/roy-budd) - **Producer:** [Euan Lloyd](https://cinepixo.com/people/euan-lloyd) - **Director of Photography:** [Phil Méheux](https://cinepixo.com/people/phil-meheux) - **Editor:** [John Grover](https://cinepixo.com/people/john-grover) ## Cast - [Robert Webber](https://cinepixo.com/people/robert-webber) - [Paul Freeman](https://cinepixo.com/people/paul-freeman) - [Judy Davis](https://cinepixo.com/people/judy-davis) - [Richard Widmark](https://cinepixo.com/people/richard-widmark) - [Edward Woodward](https://cinepixo.com/people/edward-woodward) - [Ingrid Pitt](https://cinepixo.com/people/ingrid-pitt) - [John Duttine](https://cinepixo.com/people/john-duttine) - [Lewis Collins](https://cinepixo.com/people/lewis-collins) ## Criticism on CinePixo No reviews published yet.
