The scene where the girls talk near the cinema is shot in Beaconsfield New Town, Bucks, on the opposite side of the same road where, in Brief Encounter, Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard talk outside the newsagents WH Smith's. Cyril Raymond is in both films.
The film showing at the local cinema which the girls use as a pretext for going out is Frank Capra's 'Pocketful of Miracles'.
Christina Gregg played an innocent teenage girl of sixteen, but who acts even younger, more naive. In real life, the actress was 23 years old and married.
The caller's brandy & soda costs "5 bob" which would be £5.45 in 2020.
