 The producers of the second ‘Lord Peter Wimsey’ series, starring  Edward Petherbridge (qv) as Lord Peter Wimsey, wanted to film a  version of this story, but because the rights had been sold to  Hollywood years before, they were unable to do so; Petherbridge did  act in a version of "Busmans Honeymoon," but it was for the stage  and not television or the movies.
