    great comedy moments

    Tony Hancock plays himself , that is a middle aged nobody whose insecurity shows in his outrageous pomposity.

    In The Blood Donor he is told his blood group is very rare which makes him act so self importantly yet he is also a frightened child. When the doctor tries to take his blood, he has to be soothed as his anxiety level shoots up.

    It is Hancocks genius that he is able to portray all these emotions, at one time child and another moment man of the world.

    The appeal of these old black and white episodes from the tv archives is watching a master of his craft whose great tenderness for his character makes for some of the funniest moments ever seen on the screen.

    RE: Last Posting

    These TV shows did not come from radio

    they were made for TV only but released in audio format on LPs etc..

    which is why some people think they were done on radio?..In my book Hancock was a genius,these TV shows are

    absolute classics and hilariously funny

    - he was in a class of his own and can never be replaced. Get all you can of Hancock, he was the very best, better than all the rest!........
