It's A 2'6" Above The Ground World trivia

Originally certified, promoted to trade and released as It's A 2'6" Above The Ground World, the film was soon reissued under a new title, The Love Ban, which distributors felt was a better fit for the cinema-going public.

Based on Kevin Laffan's play - It's A 2'6" Above The Ground World - the film includes no writer/adaptor credit. It is likely to have been reworked for by Laffan, Thomas and/or Box.
