Fifty Years of Hancock's Half Hour, by Richard Webber
Amazingly, it’s over 50 years since the first radio series of ‘Hancock’s Half Hour’ hit the airwaves. Two years later, Tony Hancock’s show was on television. Now regarded as classics, in 1954 these tales of the dreamer of East Cheam were cutting-edge comedy.
This is a book about the show, its writers Ray Galton and Alan Simpson (who’ve written the introduction), and the enigmatic Tony Hancock himself, with behind-the-scenes stories, two previously unpublished scripts, and a collection of original photographs.
