Goofs
When Paul visits the Tarrants he gives the teacup back to Bert, but in the next frame when Bert opens the front door for Paul his hands are empty.

Quotes
Paul Banner: Look, Judy, I don't know the object of this visitation, but I would like to point out that it's one o'clock in the morning and that your husband might conceivably misconstrue the purity of your motives.
Judy: What a pompous little speech, darling. Can I have a cigarette?

Very routine thriller

I do remember Paul Carpenter,star of this film.A Showbiz football team were playing a charity match at Finchley F C on a Sunday.Carpenter was giving a commentary over the rabbit till the residents complained and he was silenced.Here he stars in a typical fifties crime film.With his American accent he was a cheap substitute for the usual fading American star.The film starts quite well but runs out of ideas early on,particularly with his romantic entanglements.The only other point of interest is the appearance of ex world champion boxer Freddie Mills.Quite apart from his death in mysterious circumstances it is also believed that he was a serial murderer.
