Tony Hancock: Inside His Life In Words And Pictures
Tony Hancock was one of our best loved comics and his legendary Hancock's Half Hour series for the BBC was the inspiration for many comedy shows that were to follow. With radio episodes regularly repeated on the BBC, it remains as popular today as ever.
Now, for the first time, readers are able to look behind Hancock the comedian and tell his life story through the phenomenal archive amassed by his brother, Roger, combined with material held by the Tony Hancock Appreciation Society (THAS).
Lucy Hancock (Hancock's great niece) and THAS's Martin Gibbons and Tim Elms tell the story of the celebrated comic's life through pictures, correspondence and much more, most of it never published before, and featuring a foreword from Kevin McNally. The book also includes a complete chronological timeline of Hancock's life featuring stage shows and broadcasts previously unpublished.
This amazing collection of archive material is a must for all Hancock fans.
