Production

It is based on a 1951 play by John Dighton, who also wrote the screenplay. It was shot at Shepperton Studios with some location filming around the Palace in London. The film's sets were designed by the art director Wilfred Shingleton.

It was retitled The Passionate Sentry for its United States release with American censors removing two uses of the word "Cripes!".
