Show Information
Hancock's Half Hour was a BBC radio comedy, series from the 1950s and 60s written by Ray Galton and Alan Simpson. The series starred Tony Hancock, Sid James and Bill Kerr; the radio version also co-starred, at various times, Moira Lister, Andrée Melly, Hattie Jacques, and Kenneth Williams.
Comedian Tony Hancock starred in the show, playing an exaggerated and much poorer version of his own character and lifestyle, Anthony Aloysius St John Hancock, a down-at-heel comedian living at the dilapidated 23 Railway Cuttings in East Cheam.
The series was influential in the development of the situation comedy, with its move away from radio variety towards a focus on character development.
