About Hancock 

Hancock's Half Hour was a ground-breaking and influential BBC radio comedy series of the 1950s, starring Tony Hancock, with Sid James, Hattie Jacques, Bill Kerr and Kenneth Williams.

Tony Hancock starred as what was essentially an exaggerated version of his own character, usually portrayed as a down-at-heel comedian living at the dilapidated "23 Railway Cuttings" in East Cheam. Sid James played a criminally-inclined confidante who would usually manage to con Hancock in some way, while Bill Kerr appeared as Hancock's dim-witted Australian lodger. Moira Lister also appeared in the first series, before being replaced by Andrée Melly for the next two series, both playing love interests for Hancock's character. In the fourth and fifth series, Hattie Jacques played Griselda Pugh, live-in secretary to Hancock and the occasional girlfriend of Sid James.

The series broke with the variety tradition dominant in British radio comedy at that time, into the sitcom or Situation comedy genre. Instead of sketches, guest-stars and musical interludes, the humour developed from the characters and their situations.
