Another in a long line of great black and white British films of the 1950's. When Mr Pedelty (Joseph Tomelty) leaves his firm, he is given a TV set as a retirement present. At first he enjoys all the attention from his neighbours,but soon the attraction wears off, and he sells it on to the young married couple (Jack Watling and Peggy Cummins) living in the flat above him. They soon encounter the same problems,and again the set is passed on to several different charatures all with the same results. A very enjoyable story with a strong cast including Kay Kendall, Barbara Murray, and as the pantomime devil Stanley Holloway.

- CuriosidadesIn one scene a shop window of television sets shows the Bush brand as part of the display. Bush was a subsidiary of the "Rank Organisation," the distributors of the film.
- Erros de gravaçãoThe time of year is very confusing. Pantomimes run over Christmas and a poster states it will close early on January 7th but children are walking around collecting pennies with a guy for Guy Fawkes Night (November 5th) and the chemist shop is showing a sign saying closed until September 12th.
