Ray Galton and
Alan Simpson's favourite radio episodes, with brand new sleeve notes specially written for this edition
The Last of the McHancocks - 24 February 1957
The East Cheam Drama Festival - 8 April 1958
Visiting Day - 15 December 1959
The Threatening Letters - 27 May 1958
Galton and Simpson have chosen another selection of favourite episodes from the classic radio series, and written an introductory sleeve note to explain just why they love each one so much.
In The Lost of the McHancocks , Hancock has been left a Scottish castle, but finds he has to contend with Bonnie Prince Sidney and Seamus McNasty. The East Cheam Drama Festival sees Hancock trying to organise a major literary event; while Visiting Day finds our hero in hospital. Finally, The Threatening Letters has Hancock receiving some most uncomplimentary missives through the post...
As ever, the master of misery is supported by a star cast including Sid James, Bill Kerr, Kenneth Williams and Hattie Jacques , and four sparkling scripts by the masters of mirth, Galton and Simpson .
