Wiki.

The Touchables is a 1968 British crime drama film directed by Robert Freeman and written by Ian La Frenais from a story by Donald Cammell. It stars Judy Huxtable, Esther Anderson and James Villiers.

The screenplay was written by Ian La Frenais, who had created the comedy The Likely Lads for television with his partner Dick Clement. It was the first of only two films directed by Robert Freeman, the photographer responsible for a number of Beatles album covers. A mannequin of Diana Dors which appears in the film was the same model as was used in the cover montage of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Other cast members include John Ronane, Peter Gordeno, Harry Baird, Simon Williams and Joan Bakewell in a cameo role as an interviewer. The cast also includes appearances by many popular British wrestlers, including Ricki Starr, Steve Veidor, Danny Lynch and Bruno Elrington.

Largely ignored on its release and since, owing to the scarcity of prints, it has recently acquired cult status of its type, in part due to a DVD release.Donald Cammell, who shares story credit, would later rework its themes in Performance (1970).
