Monaco? edit
Just removed a bit from the intro about McColl being Monaco based. It appeared to be based on this http://www.flixens.com/director/james-allan-mccoll?year=1951/ which isn't responding right now but in archive.org seems to be about a different McColl. https://web.archive.org/web/20160911052118/http://www.flixens.com/director/james-allan-mccoll?year=1951/
The data in flixens seems to be sourced from Companies House where there is a page for 1951 McColl and a completely different one for 1958 McColl. I don't know enough about the guy to know if this is just a filling error or if these are two different people. AlistairMcMillan (talk) 03:06, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
