I love all these boy's own type action adventures. This one sees Richard Egan ("Cameron") trying to convince friend and foe alike of his worthiness whilst serving with the Lancers guarding the Khyber Pass. He is a Canadian officer who has a few issues with discipline. Whilst that doesn't go down at all well with his colleagues it does give him an opportunity to convince the duplicitous "Capt. Shir" (Raymond Burr) that he could work with him as a double agent for the scheming prince "Ishak Khan" (Donald Randolph) who plans to rid the province of their colonial occupiers. It's colourful and once it gets started, moves along quite well as he plays the game for all it's worth. A few other recognisable faces - Patric Knowles and Paul Cavanagh pop up too, with Dawn Addams ("Diana") providing the mercifully brief romantic interludes. The acting is adequate but the production is pretty basic and the ending is all just a bit too rushed, as if they had run out of filming days. It's still watchable though, if you like the genre.
