Something which I hope will interest members. An interview with Nigel Bruce's daughter before her death, and extracts from his unpublished memoirs about his time with Basil Rathbone making the Sherlock Holmes movies and radio series. Sorry it is hard to read, do click on each page to enlarge. If any member on here has a contact within the Bruce family it would be interesting to know what became of the manuscript of this memoir. If at all possible it should be published. The only copy of Nigel Bruce's Unpublished Autobiography: Games, Gossip and Greasepaint, was with his daughter Mrs Pauline Page who lived near Oxford. She is now deceased. Nick Utechin interviewed Mrs Page who allowed him to publish extracts from the work in the Sherlock Holmes Journal, of which he is editor. The interview and extracts appeared in the Winter issue of 1998: Volume 19 Number 1. Mr Utechin kindly agreed to allow me to make the extracts more widely available. So you will find both the interview and extracts from the memoir here. https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/118245811686959745462/albums/5274797161382568433
