Corrected entry: After Bentley's execution, the camera zooms in on the Bentley family home from a bird's-eye perspective. The film is set in 1953, but there are cars parked in the courtyards behind the houses that date from the 1980s.
Let Him Have It (1991)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Peter Medak
Starring: Christopher Eccleston, Tom Courtenay, Eileen Atkins, Peter Eccleston, Rebecca Eccleston
Factual error: When the prison officer played by Michael Elphick is reading from the newspaper about Bentley's case he mentions that the execution is to take place in five days' time. The day of the execution was only revealed two days before it was to take place and could have been any day during that week. Also, prisoners weren't allowed newspapers which featured themselves in it, those articles were always removed.
Derek Bentley: Let him have it, Chris.
