Hilda Crane was also adapted from a series of short stories, this time as contributions to Good Housekeeping magazine, first appearing on stage in November 1950. Both works were subsequently adapted for film. From the theatrical collection of Clive Hirschhorn, theatre critic for the Sunday Express from 1966 to 1993.
