It is the story of Hangover Hall, which might well have gone to the wrong heir and have been turned into a factory but for the intervention of a ghost, played by Mabel Constanduros , who has recently, by the way, been doing two other plays with repertory companies at Bristol and Cheltenham.
'The Ghost Knows Best' will be repeated in the Regional programme tomorrow at 3.50
