Value for Money is a 1955 British comedy film directed by Ken Annakin and starring John Gregson, Diana Dors, Susan Stephen and Derek Farr. It was written by R. F. Delderfield and William Fairchild based on the 1953 novel of the same name by Derrick Boothroyd.

Production

Producer Sergei Nolbandov did not want Diana Dors in the movie but Ken Annakin, who had directed the actor in Vote for Huggett (1949), insisted. Dors was paid £5,000; it was her first movie under a three-picture contract with Rank.

Filming started 28 December 1954. It was the first film shot under Rank's new program to shoot everything in VistaVision. Filming took place at Pinewood Studios. Much of the Yorkshire location filming was in Batley, West Riding of Yorkshire, historically an area within the Heavy Woollen District.

Costumer designer Julie Harris recalled "we had to do two versions: an American version... one of them couldn’t show the navel. Perhaps it was the Americans who didn’t want to see the navel (laughs) and no cleavage, and for the English version it was all right."
