Unfortunately Channel 5 bought a whole lot of TV movies from Universal which seem to have been made as cheaply and as quickly as possible.These are used to fill airtime on weekday afternoons when presumably very few people are watching.Quite frankly they may as well just show the test card or maybe we could see grass growing or paint drying as they would be just as entertaining.This film has the most ridiculous plot.Supposedly about a code machine,but really just a feeble excuse for a wartime action film.please GIVE US A BREAK channel 5 ,even Randolph Scott in Buchanan Rides Alone for the umpteenth time is better than this.
