Hi AC
The film's name is "Tank Force !" & starred Victor Mature & Leo Genn and a lot of familiar faces from British films of the time. Sometimes rips of it comes up on ebay, it actually has a fairly decent story to it.

Thanks for the clip Steve. I've never seen this movie before, has some good action footage considering the time it's made. I found the complete movie on Dailymotion, the film was previously known as No Time to Die.

Thanks for posting Steve, an entertaining clip although with the Cromwells up against the Centurions (quite a mismatch!) it does have some similarities with the "Battle of the Bulge" movie with the Patton's up against the Chaffee's! In that movie the Patton's represented the King Tiger's and the Chaffee's represented the Shermans or maybe just themselves. I'm assuming the Cromwells represented the Crusader Tanks and the Centurions the Panzer IV or maybe the director didn't really care. In any event they sure busted up a couple of Cromwell's.

Well done sir for tracking down its alternate name. Why they have to change film titles in different countries baffles me !

I had the same thought myself comparing the battle scene to the BOB movie.
