6/10
Decent, passable WWII yarn
21 July 2020
I would only confirm 'Igenlode Wordsmith's' review from 2006.

I also read the Radio Times review, but this time by David Parkinson (as printed in July 2020).

Parkinson comments, "the rest of the cast are simply dreadful as they spout platitudes in clipped stage accents that are totally unsuited to their middle European characters. Clive Brook and Derek Farr are embarrassingly earnest as the heads of a pirate radio station, but even worse is Diana Wynyard's ludicrously naive collaborator."

This is an overly ungenerous review, to put it mildly.

It has quite a taut plot and, despite the clipped accents, the cast put in a more than competent performance. At 90 mins, you will not regret devoting some time to viewing it.
