Couch Potato's Tuesday Trivia - Genevieve and a few four-wheeled facts | Movie Talk | What's on TV

http://youtube.com/v/Wgiv_I2TkNc John Gregson, Dinah Sheridan, Kenneth More and Kay Kendall, but it has to be said that the film's real star is vintage motor car Genevieve.

Rescued from a junkyard in 1945, this restored 1904 Darracq, formerly known as Annie, kept her screen name Genevieve after winning notoriety with her performance in this 1953 movie set around the London to Brighton car rally.

And this legendary two-seater vintage automobile is still going strong. She spent a good 36 years in Australia, but since her return to the UK in 1992, Genevieve has been wheeled out every November to delight fans and onlookers at that now infamous 60-mile London to Brighton veteran car run. And, she doesn't just make an appearance - she actually takes part.

Genevieve is showing today - 5th April - on Film 4 at 5.15pm
