After suffering a series of personal setbacks and in desperate need of cash, reporter Bart Crosbie tries to get his old job back.

Critical reception

The Radio Times called the film a "far-fetched B-movie...Terence Fisher directs with little enthusiasm, but it's worth hanging in there to catch the debut of Tommy Steele";[3] while TV Guide wrote, "it's overplayed and melodramatic but has enough intrigue to make it watchable."[4]
