Starring: Tony Hancock.
Hancock's Half-Hour is the yardstick against which all subsequent British sitcoms have been measured, the vast majority failing to size up to its extremely high standards. Based on his famous radio show of the same name, the TV run consolidated Tony Hancock's standing as Britain's leading comic of the day, the entertainer providing ample proof that his wonderfully flexible face could be as expressive as his dextrous radio voice.
Episode titles: Ericson The Viking, The Set That Failed, The New Nose, The Oak Tree, The Knighthood.
