Reception

Australian Women's Weekly called it ‘’"smooth and well produced, but Martin, who really is a funny man, seemed to be rather inhibited by the demands and structures of TV"’’ and that ‘’"old trouper Alec Kellaway and that young one Roger Climpson stole the show from him completely whenever they appeared”’’.[1]
