    Only that it was released by Grand National Pictures in late 1962 as the supporting film to the Steve Reeves Italian epic The Wooden Horse of Troy. I ran She Knows, Y'Know 48 years ago and I haven't seen it since. I don't think it's ever been shown on television here, either and there has been no video or DVD release of it.

    Thanks very much anyway. I know that Derann films had it on their film library for years. so there could be 8mm copies knocking about, or I could check with them, they may still have it ?

    @darrenburnfan - great information David, thank you! Do you recall what the film was about? Was it any good?

    @philip hindley - I do hope you can track down a copy from Derann films because I'd love to see this (as well as Arthur Askey's 'Friends & Neighbours').

    Hi Philip. Yup Derann had it in the film hire library but just a bit more than a few years ago.. Here is a scan from my 1960's Derann Standard 8mm sound film hire library book. For the record I also have the original trailer on film as a bit of a keep sake.
    Film saves the day!

    Also have a look at Hyldas web site which is very nice..

    Philip I have popped my late 1960's film print trailer on you tube so you can have a look at it being projected. Hope you find it of interest and only filmed off screen.

    What's your YouTube link please? (I searched and can't find it on YouTube at all). I'd love to see this trailer. Many thanks.
