The 50s and 60s radio and TV shows Hancock's Half Hour made Tony Hancock Britain's best-loved comedian. But he was a deeply insecure and tortured genius, whose failed marriages and increasing dependence on alcohol and drugs eroded his confidence and brilliance. From 1963 he suffered a number of serious setbacks as the rating for his television shows began to decline. Just about washed up, in 1968 Tony Hancock accepted an offer to make a series for Australian TV. Edward Joffe was asked to produce and direct that series. His book recounts for the first time, and in intimate detail, the story of Tony Hancock's last days and what it was like working with a difficult, frequently intoxicated, star whose bid to make a last claim to fame would end in suicide. Joffe is unsparing in providing provocative details of the comedian's death and includes Hancock's final, poignant suicide note. Also included is the last script Joffe and Hancock worked on together for the series that never was.

Many people consider Tony Hancock to be the finest comic actor of them all. November 2004 sees the 50th anniversary of his best-loved work, Hancock's Half-Hour, which began as a radio series, penned by the writers Galton and Simpson. Two years later, the first of 58 TV instalments had been screened, and Hancock's genius, coupled with Galton and Simpson's brilliant scripts, ensured that the show soon became a yardstick against which all subsequent British sitcoms have since been measured. Amazingly, no book has ever been written about the show. Fully authorised by Galton and Simpson, Fifty Years of Hancock's Half-Hour is a full history of the show, including how the show came about, behind-the-scenes stories from Hancock's fellow artists and members of the crew and production team, and the story of its demise. Incorporating extracts from the shows, the book will also feature photographs and a full listing of the radio and TV episodes.

Over 100 episodes of Hancock’s Half Hour were produced and broadcast, first on BBC radio in 1954 and then on TV in 1956. Receiving critical acclaim at the time, and making a star of the cantankerous Tony Hancock and roguish Sid James, Hancock’s Half Hour made history as the grumpy grandfather of British sitcom. Galton and Simpson, who also wrote the internationally successful Steptoe and Son, became writing legends. Thanks to them, we are able to enjoy these lost scripts from the early series. Stories range from observational comedy to the surreal and include Father Christmas being put on trial (part of a Christmas special), and Tony and Sid entering the ‘Mr East Cheam’ beauty competition.Not only are the scripts transcribed in their entirety, but we also show where some amendments were made, and the text is peppered with photos of the cast and background information.A great gift for Hancock fans young and old, as well as followers of comedy classics.
