A contribution to the Festival of Britain, the claim was made that the play was the first musical comedy ever produced for television.[1] The BBC Year Book commented that "Jack Hulbert was featured in Festival style".[2] Filmed in black and white, the musical has a length of 104 minutes.

Jack Hulbert, Walton Anderson, Eric Robinson, Eunice Crowther, and the George Mitchell Choir had previously worked together for BBC Television on a production of Cinderella first broadcast on 27 December 1947,[3] and most of them came together for a new Cinderella in 1950 which like The Golden Year starred Sally Ann Howes.[4]
