Payroll, lesser known film than Get Carter. But like Get Carter was shot here in Newcastle. A much earlier film and in B&W. Its about a payroll robbery that goes terribly wrong. I had to see this movie. 60's Newcastle locations, it was a must.  Hard to track down I was luckily sent a copy from someone who frequents my GC site in the possibility I might be interested in it. Well I loved the locations so much I have dedicated a small part of the web site to it. For its year it's a pretty dam good film too. If you can track a copy down I would definitely recommend it.
