In the latest pb addition of "No Bed..." Ned Sherrin (Brahm's literary executor)mentions the situation but is not specific on whether any legal actions were taken. I suspect that a private deal may have been done.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7581099872724683650.post-71593312566303519552010-12-08T06:03:20.074-06:002010-12-08T06:03:20.074-06:00Thanks for the comment!

The question is brought up only to laugh at it and drop it immediately.<br /><br />Take care!<br /><br />kjkjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14863005904313974654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7581099872724683650.post-81246849696974882782010-12-07T22:45:11.895-06:002010-12-07T22:45:11.895-06:00Interesting post indeed.

The most important candidate... Francis Bacon (hence the title of the book). One of the points for doubting about Shakespeare... there are more thatn 36 spellings of his name in different documents. Tom Stoppard with all his knowledge about Shakespeare must have known this. Hence the coincidence. If it was not such, I agree with you, the credit should be there.<br /><br />By the way, great blog, just discovered itLEPVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04849326132526733512noreply@blogger.com
