Ending It
Ending It was a 1939 BBC TV one-off play, written by Val Gielgud, and starring John Robinson, Joan Marion, and Dino Galvani.[1] It was 30 minutes in duration. Broadcast live on 25 August 1939, it pre-dated methods to record live television (which were not developed until late 1947, and used rarely by the BBC until 1953) and as such is lost.
Australian Adaptation
The most unusual aspect of the production was that it was later remade for Australian television in 1957. This version starred Bruce Beeby, Madi Hedd and Keith Buckley[2] and was produced by William Sterling.[3] Broadcast live on Sydney station ABN-2 on 19 June 1957, a kinescope was made of the broadcast and shown on Melbourne television station ABV-2 on 19 July 1957.[4] It is not known if the kinescope recording still exists.
