Margaret Rutherford Stars...: Blithe Spirit

on BBC One London

Also starring Rex Harrison, Constance Cummings, Kay Hammond

When celebrated novelist Charles Condomine, who wants to write a book about spiritualism, invites to dinner a well-known 'medium,' he little realises what - or rather who - is to materialise.

Noel Coward's own screen adaptation of his famous stage success provided Margaret Rutherford with the chance to repeat on film her most inspired comic creation - the eccentric Madame Arcati.
