Did you know
• When Kenneth Griffith climbs into the attic and uses the wireless, his Morse code is accurate. He sends out an SOS and calls "all large power stations."
• When first seen, the music society are listening to a recital by "Georg Brunch", according to a poster, though it's misspelled as "Geog".
• The radio equipment Jimmy Ellis used to warn the authorities about the attacks consisted of a transmitter T1154 and receiver R1155. These were used in Royal Air Force bomber aircraft during WW2, and were still in use in some Royal Air Force Air-Sea Rescue boats into the 1970s.
