F. Delderfield and made at the Nettlefold Studios in Walton-on-Thames.[2] The film's art direction was by John Stoll.[1] The backers Eros Films were pleased enough with the film's success to adapt another Delderfield play as Where There's a Will in 1955.[3]

Critical reception
TV Guide dismissed the film as a "Plodding domestic trifle",[5] whereas Sky Cinema approved the fact that the piece provided "Raymond Huntley and Barbara Kelly (Bernard Braden's wife) with rare leading roles in a feature film. Huntley gets a chance to break away from his stuffy bureaucrats and he's a pleasure to watch."[6]
