Critical reception[edit]

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "A routine whodunit of the most familiar kind, but with a commodious bag of suspects and an air of brisk efficiency."[5]

DVD Beaver wrote "The film is better than most for this pleasurable genre of short Brit crime-thrillers. I will watch it again when the mood strikes."[6]
