The Sydney Morning Herald called it "the most thought-provoking hour of TV theatre seen for some time", said "the acting was uniformly good" and that "the coldly aseptic geometry of the set emphasised the contrast of impersonal outwardness to the intense inward turmoil".[3]
The Canberra Times said the play "was most valuable as a showcase for the talents of Terry Norris" but felt "the other side of the coin was the thoroughly wasted talent of actors like Wynn Roberts and Michael Duffield."[4]
