| Plot | A period comedy about an illegal radio station in the North Sea in the 1960s. |
| Trivia | The ship used for filming was the MV Timor Challenger, and much filming, both day and night scenes, was done in Portland Harbour (venue for the 2012 Olympics sailing) near Weymouth. The red paint scheme was based on that of the MV Ross Revenge, which was the Radio Caroline pirate ship from 1983-91, and is nowadays maintained as a museum by volunteer enthusiasts, who assisted with several aspects of the film, including loaning many of the broadcasting and ship props. |
| Goofs | Anachronisms: Although set in 1966, many of the songs in the soundtrack were released later in the 1960s. At least two songs are from the early 1970s. |
