Whatever actor played The Lone Wolf be it Melvyn Douglas, Warren William, Ron Randell or in this case Gerald Mohr, he cannot escape his reputation as a thief. No amount of good deeds done seems to prove this guy is no longer on the dark side.
Case in point while visiting London, Scotland Yard suspects Mohr of stealing those two matching diamonds, the Stars of the Nile. We know the butler didn't do it, he had them but Tom Stevenson was murdered and The Lone Wolf is implicated in that as well even though Scotland Yard was shadowing him. Not to mention the beautiful musical comedy star Evelyn Ankers and her maid Queenie Leonard as Ankers has her producer Alan Napier under her thumb. Never mind it all gets straightened out in the end.
The Lone Wolf In London saw the farewell appearance of Eric Blore as Michael Lanyard's invaluable valet Jameson. Blore really added something to this series, in many ways he kept his wits about him even better than his boss. Note the palming off of a jewel case back and forth right under the nose of the Scotland Yard cops who are searching both of them in broad daylight. Sheer genius.
This was a nice passable B film that did no harm to the reputations of its cast.
