}}Douglas Geoffrey Bridson (21 August 1910 – 19 October 1980), commonly known as D. G. Bridson, was a radio producer and author who became the "cultural boss of the BBC".[1]

Douglas Bridson (he was known to all as Geoffrey) started as a freelance writer then joined BBC radio as a Feature Programmes Assistant for their North Region in 1935. He became the influential Programme Editor for Arts, Sciences, and Documentaries (Sound) from 1964 to 1967 and retired in 1969, having written or produced more than 800 programmes during his career.[1] In his poems he made frequent reference to the Isle of Man where he had family. Of interest to all theatre people is the close relationship he had with Joan Littlewood,
