Arnold Ridley, better remembered today as the lovable Private Godfrey in BBC television's long-running Dad's Army series, first began his successful career as a playwright during the 1920's with "The Ghost Train".
The only departure from Ridley's original play other than the splitting of the lead roles, was to update the criminals to be a gang of Fifth Columnists smuggling arms from an old jetty on the beach at night.
Unfortunately at the time failing health was overtaking Arnold, and his lively imagination died along with him in 1984 at the age of 88.

There can't be many people who don't know that Arnold Ridley, mild-mannered Private Godfrey in Dad's Army, wrote The Ghost Train which is set in the basic, cheerless waiting room at Fal Vale on the South Cornwall Joint Railway.
He penned it in the 1920s; it appears rather dated in the 21st century.
