Hi,
I'm working on a screenplay based on a book written in 1979. The book has been adapted into a television mini-series on the BBC in the early 80's. I just would like to know if there is any legal action I should take to protect/support myself once I finish writing my adaptation of the book.
I will complete the screenplay if for no other reason than practice, but if I do choose to try to "sell it", what steps should I take to find out if I legally can?
Thanks for your time.
