 To keep the Studio afloat an 'open door' hiring policy was initiated, where the Studio's facilities were made available to hire for non-sited companies, which led to a contract being signed with Columbia Pictures, and American actors working in the Studio's facilities, including Douglas Fairbanks Jr., Bette Davis, and Rock Hudson, etc.In 1955 Sapphire Films, owned by the American producer Hannah Weinstein, rented the Studio, and subsequently bought it from Ernest R. Roy, renaming them as "The Walton Studios".Sapphire Films produced 143 episodes of "The Adventures of Robin Hood" for commercial television on 35mm film at the facility in the late 1950s.
