D. G. Bridson

[1] Douglas Bridson (he was known to all as Geoffrey) started as a freelance writer then joined BBC radio as a Feature Programmes Assistant for their North Region in 1935.

[1] Many of his radio plays featured music by Norman Fulton.

In his poems he made frequent reference to the Isle of Man where he had family.

Of interest to all theatre people is the close relationship he had with Joan Littlewood.

He died on 19 October 1980 and his ashes are buried on the western side of Highgate Cemetery to the right of the war memorial in the courtyard.
