BBC Two - The Miracle of the Bells

A press agent tries to grant the dying wish of a young actress.

A press agent tries to grant the dying wish of a young actress - to ring the church bells of her home town for three days after she is buried.

The body of a young actress is brought to her home town by the man who loved her. He knows that she wanted all the church bells to ring for three days after she was buried but is told that this will cost a lot of money. The cheques that he writes to the various churches all bounce, but it is the weekend and, in desperation, he prays that a miracle will happen before the banks reopen. It does - but not in the way he hoped.
