Kenneth More and Angela Douglas


It was whilst making this film that More and Douglas met and later married - she was the second of his three wives.

Some People was made to promote the Duke of Edinburgh Awards Scheme and thus received some official help, and became a surprise box office success.

For instance the court scene was filmed in the old Bristol Magistrates Court and the local police also took an active role in assisting with the film in minor ways.

The policeman in the court scene was a policeman in real life and the road crash on the Portway at the junction of Bridge Valley Road (large van v motor cycle) involved the then Bristol Constabulary's senior motorcycling instructor.

The film is something of a Bristol As It Was and because so much was filmed on location around the city it is a valuable historic record of the changing town-scape.

Kenneth More had TWO wives BEFORE Angela Douglas.

Also, in both their mini biographies on IMDB, it is stated that their marriage was ended by More's death, which would have made it rather difficult for him to take another wife AFTER that event!

I think, therefore, that you will find that she was the THIRD of his three wives!!

Wedding bell movie-Anneke Wills and Michael Gough also married in 1962.

Michael Gough married Anneke Wills in 1965 but the IMDb pages for both did state that they married in 1962. I have submitted corrections. Writer John Eldridge married actress Jill Britton in the year he wrote it.
