Greene wrote The Confidential Agent against the backdrop of the Spanish Civil War. He had begun writing The Power and the Glory but anticipated that it would not bring in the revenues he usually hoped for from his "entertainments". With the Second World War on the horizon Greene anticipated a need for some financial security and so began writing The Confidential Agent in the morning and The Power and the Glory in the afternoon, the frenzy of writing allegedly fuelled in part by Benzedrine.

Peter Walton green and black FA Premier League referee's jersey,Umbro, short-sleeved, with breast pocket bearing Umbro embroidered logo and THE FA PREMIER LEAGUE emblem, size L, sold together with two signed referee booking cards, red and yellow, both signed in black marker pen, (3)This jersey and cards have been consigned to the auction by Peter Wilson who be donating the auction proceeds to Football Beyond Borders. Registered Charity Number 1158046. PLEASE NOTE THAT GRAHAM BUDD AUCTIONS WILL BE WAIVING THE BUYER'S PREMIUM FOR THE SALE OF THIS LOT. Sportingly referee Peter Walton has consigned his famous yellow “air card” and the matching red one from the set. It was on 9th March 2011 that the referee was forced to issue a yellow card on 40 minutes at Goodison Park to Birmingham City youngster Jordon Mutch who had lunged at Everton’s Louis Saha.Realising that he had forgotten his cards and Knowing the Sky Sports cameras were fixed firmly on him, the ref can be seen calmly delving into his short pockets to produce Mutch’s invisible yellow. In an action that would impress even the world’s best mime actors, Walton appears to majestically hold aloft the caution with realism and poise before returning it in his back pocket.
