Quotes from Lancia On film blog "There is a rather good chase involving a Bentley and a Lambda in the 1968 Hammer film The Devil Rides Out.... what was then John Maltby's Lambda (now Tony Stephens') among the assembled cars. Maltby's car appeared again in Camp on Blood Island where it was apparently destroyed by a grenade (Tony will probably find the dents under the back seat) but clips of that film don't appear to be available." "Re Camp on blood island, I think the Lambda belonged to my dad at the time, as I remember him telling me something about they paid for a new windscreen to replace the one that was cracked in the filming." "ER 5421 belonged to a Mr A Livingstone, from Ealing, London, circa 2000, but I think it has since been exported from the UK" "ER 5421 is now in Italy. It was pretty tired when Arnold Livingstone had it and even tireder after The Devil Rides Out, but it had a distinguished history. It was built up by Alec Park who was a partner of Terry Breen in his car breaking and dealing business in North London, using a fifth shell with the scuttle extended, the rear suspension lowered and an eight series engine fitted. Here is a picture of the car with a proud Alec taken, judging by the cowled lamp, sometime during the war. The car was later owned by Wells Coates and here is the famous picture of him with the car that appeared in Vogue." Camp On Blood Island sounds like a title for some of our dedicated contributors ....
