Production

The film was based on a novel published in 1952. The censor, Arthur Watkyn, a playwright, made some suggestions for cuts to enable the film to be passed. Reportedly, Kathleen Harrison had to spend two hours in the make up chair every morning.

This was Joan Collins's first film under a new contract she had signed with Rank. Terence Morgan was also under contract to Rank.
