    I saw an interview with Michael Caine on TCM this morning and he said only 2 people were killed. I think I made it 6, is that correct?

      I may need to rewatch it but I only remember him killing Brumbly from the roof, that blonde hipster dude with sunglasses and leather jacket, one other guy that was with him and then the guy at the very end where he made him swallow the liquor like his brother did. So that's four. Definitely more than two. Michael Caine needs some Gingko Balboa and do some word puzzles to keep his mind sharp. It'd be hard to keep track of such numbers over the yeras.
      Randy lay there like a slug. It was his only defense.

        Don't forget Margaret. He killed her with heroin OD in cold blood, to frame Kinnear.

              He might have been thinking of the novel. In that he only kills two people: Peter the Dutchman & Albert Swift. Glenda he knocks out and leaves for the police; he is going to kill Brumby, but he escapes & he injects Margaret with heroin, but you get the impression that it is just enough to make her unconscious for the police and press to find.

                Glenda must have died when they pushed the car off the road. Carter just looks but you know he must be thinking she is going to die!

                  In the film yes. In the novel though he just knocks her out and leaves her on the side of the road for the police to find. Not that he is too worried about her welfare. It is to give himself a head start. Whilst they are taking care of her they are not chasing him.

                    I just watched this..a lot of people died. He stabbed a guy, threw one guy off a roof, shot a dude on a boat, and let a girl drown although there wasn't a lot he could do about it. And I only caught about half or less than half of the film!!!

                      Carter also killed the girlhe gave her an overdose of heroin then put her in the water with her clothes strewn in the field to frame Cyril. Then he tipped off the coppers and they found the girl and arrested Cyril.

                        Think I make it 7. Stabbed guy at betting shop, Girl injected found in river, Eric, Chap off of car park, Girl in boot of car, Pete(Brown Leather Jacket), and Carter himself.

                          Nine. Albert at the betting shop, Margaret, Eric, Brumby, Glenda (girl in trunk/boot of car), Pete, Carter himself shot by ''J'' and the two people in the front passenger seats of the car that Brumby fell onto, probably with broken necks. They wouldn't have survived the impact of a 300 lb man falling from 130 feet

                            I reject the OP's statement that Michael Caine said there were only two. Where and when did he say this, and why would he make such an erroneous statement?

                              Not necessarily. He lands on the hood of the car, not the roof. While they were undoubtedly hurt, the two people in the car could well have survived. Brumby, of course, did not.

                                1. Albert Swift
                                2. Margaret
                                3. Glenda
                                4. Cliff Brumby
                                5. Eric Paice
                                  6 & 7. Con & Peter (the thugs dispatched to take him back to London)
                                  I count 7 (deliberate) kills on Jack Carter's part.
