    As it is currently chucking it down here in BN11, I've started to wonder what Britmovies featured constant rain.

    It seemed to rain a lot in the Carry On's usually when they were Camping or Abroad. It also rained (for some of the time) in Get Carter.

    I'm sure there must be plenty of others.

    "Angela's Ashes" is probably the wettest film I've seen.......
    And yes when I went to Limerick a few years ago it was still raining.....(still a beautiful place though)...

    Shortie tries to escape by hitching a lift in a lorry in They Drive by Night. Very atmospheric.

    Poor Yvonne Mitchell's new hairdo being ruined in Woman in a Dressing Gown (1957).

    The opening titles of The Go-Between (1971):

    The planet that never stops raining in The Illustrated Man (1969):

    The downpour at the end of Breakfast at Tiffany's might as well be my own tears when Audrey Hepburn is reunited with her cat (the same one who attacks The Incredible Shrinking Man).
