Will Hay's grand-daughter was guest of honour at the recent 70th anniversary screening of "0h! Mr Porter" in Brixton. There is a new Will Hay book and TV biography on the way in 2008 apparently which may well cover your other questions.
I caught the end of an interview with a professional footballer on "Soccer AM" last saturday - sorry didn't catch his name, but he was explaining how he now owns the windmill in Essex used in "OMP". He got the date of the film wrong (1947) but otherwise seemed clued up about the windmill's place in british film history.

Thumbs up Will Hay, (and Moore Marriott and Graham Moffatt

Both Graham Moffatt and Moore Marriot had children. Graham's children live in the West Country. Not sure if Moore's are still alive he had 5 children Jean, Elaine, Camilla, George and Ruth. Elaine Glee died 2001 in West Sussex. I know Graham Rinaldi would like to get in touch with Moore Marriott's family. If anyone knows his family can they please get in touch with me.

Sure you are correct on facts but also found that according to will hay site (previously) "that the windmill is owned by Leroy, a member of Prodigy"
