The Galloping Major is a 1951 British comedy sports film directed by Henry Cornelius and starring Basil Radford, Jimmy Hanley and Janette Scott. It was written by Monja Danischewsky, Cornelius and Radford, and made at the Riverside Studios in Hammersmith. The film's sets were designed by Norman Arnold.

Production

The film was made as an independent production, backed by the Woolf Brothers. It proved profitable at the box office, but producer Monja Danischewsky quit independent production afterwards to return to work at Ealing Studios. It has been noted as being similar in style to the Ealing comedies of the same era.

It features appearances by several figures well known at the time, including the jockey Charlie Smirke and the radio commentators Raymond Glendenning and Bruce Belfrage.

"Lambs Green" in the film is actually Belsize Village (Belsize Park and Belsize (ward)), London NW3.

The race track was filmed at Alexandra Palace, which can be seen briefly in the background.
