I am not sure where you reside, but the charming 'Mrs Bradley Mystery' series, shown recently (again?) at 9.30pm on Channel 2 (Melbourne) on Saturday nights, makes her old Rolls almost a feature of each episode.

James Bond "A view to a kill" (1985) features a Silver Cloud 1 or 2 during the major part of the film.

The best use of an RR on screen is the seduction scene in the back seat of a SS I in "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" (1970ish), perhaps one of the worst movies ever made.

Watched a movie on the ABC last night - James Dean.

Some nice shots of an early 50's Wraith, black guards, red body, plus a few others pulling up outside the movie theatre on premiere night. When James Dean gets into Mr Warners Wraith, he puts his boots up on the back of the front seat. Mr Warners says "hey, get your feet off, thats genuine walnut, cost me $2000 if you scratch it". Jimmy takes his boot of, and puts his socked foot back up on the seat.....

RR SC III 1963 was in "The Love Boat" (1980's) when it weighed anchor in a Sydney, Australia special and drove Leslie Neilsen around the sights including the Harbour Bridge.

BLOWUP from 1966 with David Hemmings had a nice convertible. I'm not sure of the model. I think it is a custom body on a Cloud III chassis. Anyone know?

The Rolls Royce actually belonged to Jimmy Savile and used to be white but was painted black for the film.
