This movie features a scene where there is an underwater man-to-man fight between Nazi German and British frogmen in an anti-submarine net but in the real-life mini-sub attack on the Tirpitz, this fight did not occur.
An original member of the real-life mini-sub operations, Commander Donald Fraser, who had been a lieutenant at the time of the mission, acted as a consultant and advisor to the film production.
The watch on Commander Fraser's wrist is the famous Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso, a watch with a case that can be turned around so that the front faces downwards, thus protecting the glass from hard knocks. This robust watch is nowadays considered as an ultra-luxury item.
