TRIVIA---in ICE STATION ZEBRA's flooded torpedo room scene, British spy Mr. Smith (Patrick McGoohan) goes underwater to rescue fatally injured Lt. George Mills (Murray Rose). However, McGoohan, whose foot became stuck in a torpedo rack, whispered, "Now I've done it, my foot's stuck", and Rose, a six-time Olympic swimmer medalist, had to rescue McGoohan.
Murray Rose was a six-time Australian Olympic swimmer medalist before he played Lt. George Mills in ICE STATION ZEBRA.
