There are a couple of low budget poor comedies. On Wednesday morning there's an American film called "Ghosts on the Loose" (1943) which was one of the "East Side Kids" series of films. They come across some Nazi spies who presumably are trying to keep people away fro their base by pretending that it's haunted, Bela Lugosi is in that which is why the film was also known as "The East Side Kids Meet Bela Lugosi". The only notable piece of trivia is that this was the first credited role by Ava Gardner.Next Sunday afternoon is a British comedy called "The Runaway Bus" (1954) which was intended to be a star vehicle (pun intended) for Frankie Howerd who is the bus driver. The only reason for mentioning it is that one of the passengers was played by Margaret Rutherford. Piece of trivia in that when the film had been completed and cut it was realised that it was only 72 minutes. To qualify as a feature film at the time it had to be at least 75 minutes. So Howerd improvised a scene in a phone box talking to his girl friend.
Thankyou El 
Unfortunately, as much as I love Margaret Rutherford, I cannot stand Frankie Howerd...so that one will be a definite miss for me. 
Dunno about the other film...we'll see
