Quatermass is a universe I've never explored, but Sid James as a tabloid journo begin machine-gunned is something I might have to see. The Wild Geese digression was fun - Richard Burton sweating alcohol tears - and yes, you blokes doing a podcast on such war movies - be it Euston studios, Africa, 1970s, or mercenaries sounds interesting. The Wild Geese, with its musings on Black/White conflict and power was a huge hit in Suva where I saw it as a kid; Joan Armatrading's haunting theme song all over local radio - even the Fijian language station.
You might want to add X THE UNKNOWN to your list of Quatermass movies though the character is called by another name. Cut from the same cloth though.
Sven Hassel! Blast from the past alright.
