"The various uses of Peter Pan that have given the hospital money throughout most of the years since Barrie's death in 1937,

will continue in the UK at least thanks to former prime minister Jim Callaghan.

Encouraged by his wife Audrey, who was a chairwoman of Great Ormond Street,

Callaghan successfully campaigned to get the UK's 1988 copyright act amended

to give the hospital the unique right to royalties from stage performances of Peter Pan and any adaptation of the play forever."

Very convenient.
