Barry reports that the NTSC version contains several extended scenes:
"There is one major extra scene where Mark takes Anne home after her initial questioning. He flirts with her, makes his interest in her plain and cracks a few jokes at the expense of the policeman guarding her flat. Goes about 90 seconds. There are some other scenes that go on a bit longer, such as when her boss says to Sam "Do you envy me?" he goes on to waffle about success being a treadmill, with a terrific nonplussed look from Ken Jones."
Cast:
Julie Sommars (Ann Rogers), Robert Lang (The Man), Anthony Steel (Mr Burton), Tony Selby (Mark), Trisha Hooker (Young Woman), Ken Jones (Sam), Geoffrey Whitehead (Keston), Susan Tracy (Telephonist), Colin Haig (Messenger Boy), Annette Woollett (Penny), Patrick Connor (Freddy), Robert Oates (Policeman).
