Val Valentine
From The Goon Show Depository
Val Valentine (1895–1971) was a British screenwriter.[1]
Val Guest said he was "a larger-than-life character who won the VC [Victoria Cross] and Christ knows what else. He was a large lively man, always brimming with ideas, some awful, some of which were very funny, many of which we used."[2]
