Hancock's Half-Hour

on BBC Television

View in Radio Times

Written by Alan Simpson and Ray Galton.
[Starring] Tony Hancock
featuring Sidney James
with Dick Emery, John Vere, Campbell Singer.

'Cover Boy' Hancock tonight turns his attention to newspapers. Not, as you might imagine to read his notices, but to have a bash at the competitions - all the competitions - with the promise of riches, fame, and whatever else they have to offer. After all, someone's got to win them, and why not Tony? Maybe Sid has an answer to that one.
