: When I first got hold of Bart Vanderveen's C8A Ambulance for restoration he sent me a number of photographs of it on the film set of 'A Bridge Too Far', albeit repainted to resemble an HUW.
He assured me it was used during several scenes so I sat with eyes glued to the screen and played all vehicle scenes repeatedly where it was obvious to appear in the background but to no avail. However it is there, slightly out of context, during the early opening scenes where the Germans are evacuating alongside a canal in a variety of transport. All you can see is the vehicle from the rear (partially hidden) with lots of Germans hanging out of the open roof hatch!
Never mind it still had its moment of glory with probably the best shots ending up on the editing floor.
