It was produced by the British & Dominions Film Corporation at their Elstree Studios as a quota quickie for distribution by Paramount Pictures to allow them to comply with the terms of the annual quota. Badger's Green is currently missing from the BFI National Archive, and is listed as one of the British Film Institute's "75 Most Wanted" lost films.[2] The story was later remade for the 1949 film Badger's Green, which does survive.
