Reception
Kine Weekly wrote: "Supporting offering of a light and harmless nature for popular programmes. ... Jack Hobbs as Andrew capably portrays the carefree young man about town, and Pat Paterson makes a charming heroine. ... Competent direction gets good comedy incident from the slight story, and although the action is somewhat slow it develops to a moderately entertaining climax."[3]
