Hello all,
Did anybody watch this documentary on BBC1 yesterday (Monday) evening?
It focused predominantly with JM Barrie's story although it referred to the original Disney film as Peter Pan's finest hour.
JM Barrie signed over all royalties made from Peter Pan to go to the Great Ormond Street Childrens' Hospital in London and this deal expired in the 1980's. There was a debate in Parliament where it was decided that this practise would continue and that is still the case. Does the hospital still get any royalties from Disney re Peter Pan? Just curious as when watching I wasn't sure if any law passed here could also be enforced internationally.
Happy New Year,
Regards,
Joanne
