Patrick Macnee must have been on holidays, as the original synopsis has him at the airfield with Tara when Trent is killed, and all the second unit filming has the stuntman in the bubble car wearing a bowler hat (and it's Rocky Taylor, Patrick's stunt double). However, when Captain Andrews gets in the car, he puts on a trilby.
The x-rays of the suitcase are reused in Thingumajig, puportedly being x-rays of the... thingumajig.
