Critical reception
- TV Guide observed, "a number of England's pop singers and groups of the 1960s are on display in this variety show held together by a slim story line."[2]
- The New York Times noted, "young Mr. Steele, all teeth and yellow hair, gives his all to the role."[3]
- The Radio Times called the film "sentimental hokum...The songs sound as though they were knocked out on a slow afternoon on Denmark Street, London's very own Tin Pan Alley."[4]
- Allmovie called it an "engaging children's musical."[5]
