Tony Hancock

Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC TelevisionLatest broadcast: on BBC Four

Tony Hancock was the vulnerable clown who became a household name with Hancock's Half Hour. John Freeman cross-examined leading personalities of the day. At the time Freeman's interview was heavily criticised. He was considered too brusque, almost ruthless in his technique. But the two became close friends and it is an interview many remember.
