#Brannigan (1975) : 1974 Ford Capri 3000 GT Mk2
John Wayne unable to cope with a manual gearbox, a stuntdriver took the Capri to the edge of the bridge and reversed it down at speed all the time looking ahead. In the film the footage is reversed to make it look like the Capri is speeding up towards the opposite bank of the River Thames.

@QuirkyFilms I must have seen this film a dozen times but I never noticed how quickly the road worksʼ crew set up between the Jaguar S-type going over Tower Bridge and the Ford Capri going over! And it was so much sunnier when the Duke went over!
