A home audio recording of the now missing adaptation of Oscar Wilde's 'The Canterville Ghost' starring Bruce Forsyth, from the 1960s supernatural anthology series 'Mystery and Imagination' produced by Jonathan Alwyn for ABC.
I have no information on who made these tape recordings or how they were recovered, they were simply passed on to me some years ago by a fellow ghost story enthusiast. The sound quality, as supplied to me, is far from perfect, and there is background noise at times, but as a record of a sadly lost episode from a well regarded and well remembered series, I thought it worth sharing anyway. For those interested in learning more about the series, the surviving episodes, plus a brief clip from the lost adaptation of 'Casting the Runes', have been released on DVD by Network, with an accompanying booklet detailing the background to the series and a full episode guide.
Originally broadcast 12 March 1966.
Adapted by Giles Cooper
Directed by Kim Mills
Starring David Buck, Bruce Forsyth, Eleanor Bron, David Bauer, Libby Morris, Doris Rogers, John Falconer, David Stoll, Angela Thorne, Colin Pilditch, Darryl Read, Robert Mill.
