Mad About Men is a 1954 British Technicolor comedy film directed by Ralph Thomas and starring Glynis Johns, Donald Sinden, Anne Crawford and Margaret Rutherford. It was written by Peter Blackmore, who also wrote the 1948 film Miranda which preceded Mad About Men. Johns appears in both films as the mermaid Miranda Trewella. However, Rank Films insisted it was not a sequel.

Production

Filming took place in May 1954. The film was shot at Pinewood Studios and on location at Polperro in Cornwall and Long Crendon in Oxfordshire. Filming also took place in Brighton including at the Palace Pier. The film's sets were designed by the art director George Provis. Ralph Thomas and Betty Box made it between Doctor in the House and Doctor at Sea.

Dora Bryan, who played the mermaid Berengaria, later recalled she almost drowned because of her heavy tail and that fish in the tanks would die because Glynis Johns insisted on the water being hot.
