Critical receptionChibnall and McFarlane in The British 'B' Film wrote that the film: "despite its shop-worn late-of-the-West-End look, moves along breezily and the competent actors make the most of their amusing lines."[5] In British Sound Films: The Studio Years 1928–1959 David Quinlan rated the film as "poor", writing: "Slaptick farce devoid of inspiration."[1] TV Guide called the film "a barely average British comedy."[6] References
