[2] Nicky Brooke is a wealthy young man who despite his engagement to the aristocratic (and broke) Lady Constance Westaker falls for hard-up model Diana Castles after nearly running her over with his car.

Climbing High was filmed at Pinewood Studios, Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire by Gaumont British Picture Corporation.

He concluded that Climbing High was "one of the most entertaining British comedies of the period with some piercing topical humour (especially about the advertising business and political activism) that still holds today.
