This is one of about three dozen British films picked up by CBS in 1949 for television presentation. Its initial telecasts took place in Baltimore Saturday 2 July 1949 on WMAR (Channel 2), in Los Angeles Saturday 16 July 1949 on KTTV (Channel 11) and in New York City Saturday 27 August 1949 on WCBS (Channel 2). Since this title had never been shown theatrically in the USA, these telecasts were also its USA premiere showings.
Based upon a short story by Edgar Wallace.
