HANCOCK'S HALF HOUR
SERIES 4
Excellent condition
Hancock's Half Hour was one of the most successful series ever made, and it created an international star. With his impeccable timing and brilliantly subtle shifts in intonation, Tony Hancock could create sound pictures that bore the unmistakable hallmark of a genius. The BBC broadcast eighty hours of Hancock on radio and television between 1954 and 1961.
Now BBC Radio Collection has published, in chronological order, all 74 surviving radio shows from the BBC Archives. An accompanying booklet contains an introduction from the show's writers Galton & Simpson, a history of the show with contemporary press extracts and photos, episode synopses for all shows including the missing ones, and biographies of the cast.
Series 4 consisted of 20 epsodes were broadcast between October 1956 and February 1957. Only seventeen of these remain from the series, published here on nine CDs in a luxury box set.
They are:
Back from Holiday The Bolshoi Ballet
The Income Tax Demand Michelangelo 'Ancock
Anna and the King of Siam Cyrano de Hancock
The Espresso Bar Hancock's Happy Christmas
The Diary The 13th of the Series
Almost a Gentleman The Old School Reunion
