Trivia
Harry Saltzman first suggested Harry H. Corbett for the role of Harry Palmer.
Share this
Although the narrator in the novel is nameless, at one point in the novel he is greeted by someone saying "Hello, Harry". The narrator then thinks "Now my name isn't Harry, but in this business it's hard to remember whether it ever had been."

Harry is offered an annual salary of £1400 for his new job. This was rather less than twice the average wage in 1965, so not a fantastic sum for the danger involved.

Goofs
When Palmer tells Dalby, "There's a dead American agent in my flat," his mouth is clearly saying, "CIA man" instead of "American agent".

After Palmer hurts his wrists in the first brain washing session, the next time he is taken his wrists are not injured. Even though it has only been two days according to the marks on the wall, and later they are hurt again.

When Harry is transferred to Dalby, his secretary's cigarette disappears and reappears between shots.
